Columbus Informazione quoting Pro-Wagner Channels: Now we can say the three points that were promised to him (#Prigozhin is meant):

- 2. Amnesty for musicians (Wagner fighters)
- 3. Possibility to return to Africa
#Wagner PMC CEO Yevgeny #Prigozhin: They (Shoigu and Gerasimov) wanted to disband the Wagner Group. We left on June 23 for the “March of Justice”. During the day we walked less than 200 kilometers to Moscow. During this time, we have not shed a single drop of the blood of our fighters.
Now the moment has come when blood can be shed, therefore, understanding all the responsibility for Russian blood to be shed on one of the sides, we turn our columns and leave in the opposite direction to the field camps according to the plan

▪️ The Russian Foreign Ministry warned the West against any hint of possible exploitation of the internal Russian situation for its own Russophobic purposes.

Some thoughts on what is going on in Russia
"I realized a long time ago that the Russian Federation is now going through the same situation that Ukraine was in 2014. There was an army on paper and at parades, but when the war began it became clear that it was not there. We needed to do something. And volunteers began to show up - volunteers are enterprising people. Every asshole has his own volunteer batallion. At first they were helpful. Then, predictably, they began to become impudent and grumpy.
How many times did Yarosh [leader of Right Sector] threaten to send battalions to Kyiv? I wrote it down, then I lost count. I remember how the Speaker of the Rada was surrounded by militants. I remember the number of gangs fighting the enemy at varying degrees of distance from the front. I remember when the police shot at each other in Knyazhichi. I remember the massacre of Right Sector members by cops in Mukachevo. And after it, I remember the recording of a battalion commander against the background of machine gunners in the forest. There was a lot. Ukraine passed this stage in 2014-2018.THIS STAGE IS JUST BEGINNING IN THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION.
