Good thing Prigozhin didn’t hold up a “No war” sign or he would have been jailed for 7 years

[Anton Gerashchenko @Gerashchenko_en]

Russian media quotes Peskov:

"The criminal case against Prigozhin is suspended, he will "head to Belarus".

Peskov doesn't know what role Prigozhin will play in Belarus.

The authorities will not persecute those members of Wagner who took part in this revolt, considering their merits earned on the battlefield."

[Anton Gerashchenko @Gerashchenko_en]

He was several steps away from the Kremlin, and now is going to Belarus: Russian media posted a photo of Prigozhin leaving Rostov.

Prigozhin is coming to Lukashenko.

What will this arrangement lead to? We'll see soon.

WHY RELEASE THIS NEWS NOW?

If it is all over, why would 🇷🇺 News report that,

“During the search in Prigozhin's office they found “his” passports (in other people's names); bags with white powder; guns, 5 kg of gold; & bags with currency.”

???

I ask the City of Hamtramck to tear down the wall of divisiveness they’ve created and raise the flag of equality.

Anyone who accepts evil without protesting against it is one who cooperates with it.

And make no mistake: homophobia and transphobia are indeed forms of evil, just as much as islamophobia is.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Today, the world saw that the bosses of Russia do not control anything. Nothing at all. Complete chaos. Complete absence of any predictability.

First, the world should not be afraid. We know what protects us. Our unity.

Ukraine will definitely be able to protect Europe from any Russian forces, and it doesn't matter who commands them. We will protect. The security of Europe's eastern flank depends only on our defense.

Ukrainian soldiers, Ukrainian guns, Ukrainian tanks, Ukrainian missiles are all that protect Europe from such marches as we see today on Russian territory. And when we ask to give us the F-16 fighters or the ATACMS, we're enhancing our common defense. Real defense.

Second, everything must be real. It's time for everyone in the world to frankly say that all of Russia's criminal actions against Ukraine were and are unprovoked. And we all have to focus exclusively on our common security priorities. NATO is not just a word or a set of formal promises. These are reliable guarantees for everyone that peace won't be destroyed. Without Ukraine, such guarantees are worthless. Already in July at the summit in Vilnius, it is a historic chance for real decisions without looking back at Russia. Any nation that borders Russia supports this.

What will we, Ukrainians, do?

We will defend our country. We will defend our freedom. We will not be silent and we will not be inactive. We know how to win – and it will happen. Our victory in this war.

And what will you, Russians, do?

The longer your troops stay on Ukrainian land, the more devastation they will bring to Russia. The longer this person is in the Kremlin, the more disasters there will be.

@wartranslated Summary of the past 24 hours

[WarTranslated @wartranslated]

No one's going to take Wagner seriously now 😂

[WarTranslated @wartranslated]

Prigozhin says it's over:

"They were going to dismantle PMC Wagner. We came out on 23 June to the March of Justice. In a day, we walked to nearly 200km away from Moscow. In this time, we did not spill a single drop of blood of our fighters. Now, the moment has come when blood may spill. That’s why, understanding the responsibility for spilling Russian blood on one of the sides, we are turning back our convoys and going back to field camps according to the plan."

[Jason Jay Smart @officejjsmart]

IS IT OVER?!?!

Lukashenko, dictator of Belarus 🇧🇾, proposed that if Prigozhin quits his Mosvow campaign, the leadership of the 🇷🇺 Ministry of Defense will resign & Prigozhin will be able to go focus on projects in Africa.

Prigozhin responded, “Realizing all the responsibility for the fact that Russian blood will be shed, we turn our columns around and leave in the opposite direction to the field camps according to the plan.”

This is crazy.

100% chance Prigozhin will end-up going out a window if he does not topple Putin.

[Dolly 🤍s Democracy 🇺🇸🕊🇺🇦 @VibeSoHigh]

So Prigozhin just backed down from throwing one of the biggest temper tantrums the world has ever seen?

Let’s remember, we’re not exactly dealing with the most rational (or sober) actors here.

#RussiaInChaos

[Anton Gerashchenko @Gerashchenko_en]

New statement by Prigozhin:

"We are turning our convoys around and are leaving in the opposite direction to field camps according to plan.

Wagner PMC was to be closed off. We went out on 23rd June to the 'Justice March'. In 24 hours we walked short on 200 km from Moscow. Durinf this time we haven't shed a single drop of blood of our fighters. Now a time has come when blood might be shed. Understanding all the responsibility for spilling Russian blood, we are turning our convoys around and are leaving in the opposite direction to field camps according to plan."

6/ But this moment will have serious international implications. Every nation that has sided with Moscow or remained on the sidelines of the Ukraine War will now reassess. Even if Putin survives, he will be badly weakened as will his effort in Ukraine.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

5/ Thus, the United States needs to let this play out and not appear as if we are meddling or taking sides. Our first priority is protecting US citizens and our friends in Ukraine.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

4/ Yes, Prigozhin seems to have soured on the Ukraine invasion. That’s good news. But he is equally, if not more dangerous than Putin. Americans shouldn’t instinctively root for Prigozhin. A civil war inside Russia is potentially cataclysmic.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

2/ Prigozhin believes he has the Russian people on his side. But the force he is moving toward Moscow is small. No way to know if there will be military conflict and whether Prigozhin is right. Putin still controls the media. He hold on the Russian mind is still strong.
