The head of the Wagner mercenary group Yevgeny Prigozhin is back in Russia, nearly two weeks after Wagner's failed uprising against the country's military leadership.
That's according to Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko, who negotiated an end to last month's insurrection with the Kremlin by offering to host Prigozhin and his Wagner mercenaries in Belarus.
Speaking to reporters in Belarusian capital Minsk on Thursday, Lukashenko said Prigozhin was no longer under his protection.
