Belarus: Wagner chief agrees to deescalate Russia mutiny
The office of Belarussian leader Alexander Lukashenko said the Wagner chief Yevgeny Prigozhin has agreed to deescalate his force's mutiny.
Lukashenko's office said the president spoke to Prigozhin with the permission of Russian President Vladimir Putin to broker a deal to halt the movement of Wagner's mercenaries across Russia.
Belarus said an agreement that guarantees the safety of Wagner fighters is on the table.
The announcement was carried on the official Telegram channel of the Belarusian president.
Earlier, the Kremlin held out an olive branch to Prigozhin, hours after his forces sent a tank convoy toward Moscow in an apparent act of rebellion against the Russian military.
