Prigozhin's mercenaries in Rostov celebrating the end of the attempted coup d'état in Russia. The deal, crafted by Lukashenko, has not yet been made public, but is believed to involve the dismissal of Shoigu and Gerasimov and the withdrawal of the process of "armed rebellion" (coup d'état) instituted by the Russian government against Prigozhin and his mercenaries. . With this action, Prigozhin was shown to have more strength and influence in Russia than previously thought.
From the news that arrived in the last few minutes, we can conclude a few things about Prigozhin's coup attempt in Russia: 1. Prigozhin occupied and controlled Rostov without resistance and in less than 8 hours; 2. Then he advanced and passed through Voronezh, one of Russia's main industrial defense poles, also without much resistance; 3. he reached only 200 km from Moscow w / his column of mercenaries; 4. The pressure was such that, behind closed doors, Lukashenko brokered an agreement with Prigozhin to interrupt the march and go back; 5. Prigozhin accepts the deal, gets what he wants (the details of the deal are still unknown), says he doesn't want to spill Russian blood and turns around. From all this confusion, Putin emerges weakened, with Prigozhin showing the world that, if he wants to, he can invade and occupy entire Russian oblasts, demanding for their withdrawal whatever he wants. Probably the process for "armed rebellion" (coup d'état) will be withdrawn and Prigozhin should receive much more autonomy to command more freely some sectors of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

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."
⚡️The full statement of Lukashenko's press service on the situation around Wagner PMC: "This morning, Russian President Vladimir Putin briefed his Belarusian counterpart on the situation in southern Russia with the private military company Wagner. The heads of state agreed on joint actions. In further development of the agreements, the President of Belarus, having additionally specified the situation through his own channels, in agreement with the President of Russia, held talks with the head of Wagner PMC Yevgeny Prigozhin. Negotiations continued throughout the day. As a result, they came to agreements on the inadmissibility of unleashing a bloody massacre on the territory of Russia. Yevgeny Prigozhin accepted the proposal of President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko to stop the movement of armed persons of the Wagner company in Russia and take further steps to de-escalate tensions. At the moment, on the table is an absolutely profitable and acceptable option for solving the situation, with security guarantees for the Wagner PMC fighters. As previously reported, also today the President of Belarus held two meetings with the power bloc of the country on this situation"
