Russian President Vladimir Putin has addressed his country, thanking citizens for their unity, following the aborted revolt by the Wagner mercenary group. Putin said he would honor his promise to allow Wagner fighters to relocate to Belarus if they wanted - where Wagner’s commander Yevgeny Prigozhin is believed to be in exile.
Or Putin said soldiers could also sign a contract with the Russian Defense Ministry. He did not mention Prigozhin himself. Earlier the mercenary leader said his actions had highlighted weaknesses in Russia’s security. The man who launched an extraordinary revolt in Russia over the weekend and then suddenly called it off has spoken out.
Yevgeny Prigozhin, leader of the Wagner mercenary group, released a defiant 11-minute audio message on Monday justifying his actions. In it, he said he wanted to protest the Russian government, not overthrow it, and that his actions had highlighted the weakness in Russia’s security.

Wagner Group leader explains what Lukashenko offered him
Ukrainska Pravda

https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2023/06/26/7408636/
Yevgeny Prigozhin, Wagner Group leader, made his first public statement after the failed rebellion. In it, he reported on the offer received from Belarusian dictator Alexander Lukashenko.
SOURCE: Prigozhin on Telegram
QUOTE: “Lukashenko extended his hand and offered to find solutions for the further work of Wagner Private Military Company in a legal jurisdiction.”
DETAILS: According to the chief of Wagner, Lukashenko turned to him with this proposal after Prigozhin decided to “stop the march to Moscow” in order “not to spill Russian blood”.
BACKGROUND:
• On the evening of 23 June, Wagner Group leader Yevgeny Prigozhin claimed that the regular Russian army had launched a missile strike on the Wagner mercenaries’ rear camps. He therefore deployed 25,000 of his mercenaries “to restore justice”.
• On the morning of 24 June, Prigozhin claimed that his forces had taken control of military facilities in Rostov-on-Don, and seized military facilities in the Russian city of Voronezh – and were headed “to Moscow” – and the capital of the Russian Federation was already preparing for defence.
• In an emergency address, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that Russia was “fighting for survival” and that attempts were being made to “organise a rebellion” in the country. Ukrainian intelligence had information that Putin had urgently left Moscow for his residence in Valdai.
• On Saturday evening, after a conversation with self-proclaimed Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko, Prigozhin announced that his mercenaries were turning their convoys around and going back to set up field camps. Later, it was reported that the criminal case against Prigozhin is to be closed and he will “go to Belarus”.
• According to the Russian pro-war media and Telegram channels, during the mutiny, the Wagner Group fighters shot down an Il-22M aircraft (command post) and 6 helicopters of the Russian army, which killed 13 to 20 people. Also in Russia, 19 houses and roads were damaged by the march of Prigozhin’s private army.

Nowadays, doing business is supposed to be about more than just making money. By becoming involved in many social and even political initiatives, modern corporations are trying to season their business practices with a pinch of compassion and a dash of morality, but is this all designed to disguise the fundamental drive for profit which still lies beneath it all? Are consumers feeling comfortable with this approach? And can the intentions of all those businesses be considered sincere, if their approach to issues such as diversity or human rights varies greatly between geographical markets? Tonight, we’ll be examining the issue of corporate activism and its role in society with our guests, Lord Maurice Glasman, Labour life peer in the House of Lords, and David Engels, a historian with the Institute for Western Affairs.

Yevgeny Prigozhin and his Wagner PMC and their „tour” from Rostov to Moscow - was it a putsch? Was it a smokescreen? Did Putin and Prigozhin make total fools of themselves? Joe also tells us about the effects of fundraising that will help Ukrainian soldiers defend their country against the Russian attack.

UK government considers preparing for scenario of unexpected collapse of Russian Federation – The Time
European Pravda

https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2023/06/26/7408550/
According to internal assessments within the UK government, the UK should prepare for the scenario of an unexpected collapse of the Russian Federation so that such events do not take London by surprise.
SOURCE: The Times, citing its sources, as reported by European Pravda.
Even from the beginning of the full-scale war, London assumed it could end in instability inside the country for Moscow. But the pace of events since Prigozhin announced his “march on Moscow” has prompted diplomats to quickly prepare a plan of action for various scenarios.
“We have to wait, watch and see what comes next. This could be Chapter One of something new,” the source said.
John Glen, the Chief Secretary to the Treasury of the United Kingdom, said that the events in Russia are its “internal affairs.”
The former UK defence attache in Moscow, John Foreman, said that Prigozhin’s successful seizure of power would be the “worst-case scenario”, and there should be no illusions that he is supposedly a more liberal, peace-minded democrat because “he’s a fascist”.
Foreman suggested that the pace of events on Friday and Saturday caught Western diplomats by surprise.
“Our assessment was that this was going to be gradual. It wasn’t going to be a sudden march on Moscow,” he said.
Lord Richard of Herstmonceux, the former chief of the defence staff, expressed the opinion that Putin, despite the impact of the rebellion on his authority, is still a dangerous opponent and the West risks underestimating Russia.
Sir Roderic Lyne, a former UK ambassador to Russia, expressed that after the uprising, Putin’s chances of remaining ruler of Russia for life are already less, but “right now he is still in charge.”

On Saturday, the Wagner mercenary force, which has led much of the fighting for Russia in eastern Ukraine, aimed its weapons, albeit briefly, at Russia’s own military leaders. Wagner’s head Yevgeny Prigozhin accusing those leaders of mismanaging the war.
In the span of a few hours, the Kremlin accused Prigozhin of being a traitor, Prigozhin called off the rebellion and the Kremlin said it would not pursue charges against any Wagner fighters or Prigozhin himself. But those terms are apparently changing.

“Russian regime is fragile, future rebellions may be worse, - Nauseda “

The President of Lithuania Gitanas Nauseda, commenting on the rebellion of the leader of the “Wagner” PMC Yevgeny Prigozhin, said that the riots reflect the crisis situation in Russia.
This is reported by Censor.NET with reference to LRT.
“Certain rebellious elements are beginning to create a crisis for the regime and, most importantly, the very sequence of events has shown that the king is naked and that a force of this size can go far enough to pose a fundamental threat to the regime,” he said.
Nauseda called the “unlikely” version that Prigozhin’s mutiny was organized by both sides.
“In my opinion, the reputational damage to the regime is so great that this version seems very unlikely,” he added.
“The Russian regime has demonstrated that it is fragile, that it is falling apart, and that similar or greater challenges can be expected in the future,” he added.
As Censor.NET reported, on the evening of 23 June, the Russian army fired a missile at the “Wagner” PMC camp. In response, the PMC leader announced a march on Moscow. Instead, the FSS accused him of armed rebellion and opened a criminal case.
Prigozhin later claimed that his troops had entered Rostov. He claims that the “Wagner” PMC has seized the city and the headquarters of the southern district. Next, Prigozhin is going to march on Moscow to remove the Russian military leadership from power.
On 24 June, Alexander Lukashenko, in agreement with Russian President Vladimir Putin, held talks with Yevgeny Prigozhin. As a result of the talks, the head of the Wagner PMC said that he was deploying the group’s fighters to field camps.
