Maybe this is what it says it is. Maybe this is some ruse to put tens of thousands of Wagner forces in Belarus, where they're in a good position to assault Kyiv while Ukraine is focused on the counter offensive in Crimea.

My thought exactly as soon as I heard that monster is being "exiled" to Belarus.
he negotiated the settlement with Prigozhin
He didn't even do that, he was calling all his friends (Tokayev, Erdogan etc) to do it for him, but only Lukashenko agreed, because he owes Putin for staying in power. Today Lukashenko said that "if Russia falls, we will all die under its ruins", which makes it even more clear that this is a desperate alliance of two very weak rulers.
