The head of the private military company
(PMC) Wagner,
Yevgeny Prigozhin has accepted proposal to
stop the movement of Wagner troops in Russia and take further steps to de-escalate tensions after President of Belarus
Alexander Lukashenko, in agreement with the president of Russia, held talks with Prigozhin, the press service of the Belarusian president said.
"In line with the agreements and as agreed with the Russian president, the Belarusian president held talks with the head of the Wagner PMC, Yevgeny Prigozhin, after additionally clarifying the situation via its own channels. As a result, agreements on unacceptability of unleashing a bloody slaughter on the Russian territory were reached. Yevgeny Prigozhin has accepted the proposal of Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko to stop the movement of Wagner troops on the Russian territory and take further steps to de-escalate tensions," the office was as quoted as saying by the Pool Pervogo Telegram channel.
Meanwhile, Prigozhin has published an official audio message stating that the columns stopped 200 kilometers from Moscow. According to him, the moment had come "
when blood could be shed".
"Understanding all responsibility that Russian blood from one of the sides could be spilled, we are turning our columns back and moving to the opposite direction to field camps in accordance with plans," Prigozhin said in an audio statement released on his Telegram channel.
Who is Prigozhin, Head of Wagner Group?
The Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) has opened a criminal case against Yevgeny Prigozhin, the head of the PMC Wagner following his calls for an "armed rebellion" on Friday.
The FSB has called on private military company (PMC) Wagner troops to disobey Prigozhin's "criminal and treacherous orders", and take measures to detain him instead.
"Excessive ambition and personal interests have led to betrayal, betrayal of Russia and the cause for which the fighters and commanders of the Wagner Group fought and died side by side with other units and detachments," President Putin said in a televised address to the nation on Saturday morning.
The Wagner Group and Russian Army forces jointly participated in the battle of
Artemovsk, also known as
Bakhmut. This joint operation resulted in the liberation of the Donbass city in late May, following eight months of intense fighting. The battle had significant implications as it pinned down large concentrations of Ukrainian troops, allowed Russia to train its mobilized reserves, and dealt a major blow to
