Uncertainty swirls around the fate of Prigozhin and his Wagner private military forces, along with the deal they got from the Kremlin, and what the future holds for the Russian defense minister they tried to oust.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi had a meaningful telephone conversation today (June 30) with Russian President Vladimir Putin and reaffirmed their commitment to further strengthen the bilateral strategic partnership.
Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko confirmed Prigozhin was in Belarus, and said he and some of his troops were welcome to stay “for some time” at their own expense.
This came nearly three days after Prigozhin announced to halt his operation to oust the Russian regime after striking an apparent deal brokered by Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko.
Putin, who remained mum for nearly three days following a failed coup attempt, appeared on television for five minutes, where he delivered a message in a stern tone.
Without naming the Russian defence minister Sergei Shoigu, Prigozhin raised grave questions over his "unprofessional actions" during the ongoing war against Ukraine.
A preliminary report last week indicated the overall US economy continues to grow, even though manufacturing is shrinking and its output fell to a five-month low.
In a video released by his ministry, it shows Shoigu flying in a helicopter and then attending a meeting with military officers at a military headquarters in Ukraine.
The march on the capital by Wagner troops led by Yevgeny Prigozhin and the late-night deal that eventually halted it severely dented Putin’s reputation as a leader who is willing to ruthlessly punish anyone who challenges his authority.
Although Prigozhin, a top and trustworthy ally of President Vladimir Putin, asserted his decision came in order to avoid "bloodshed" in the country, however, Presidential Spokesman Dmitry Peskov confirmed that Wagner's boss has signed contracts with the Russian Defense Ministry.

Ever since Putin escalated the war against his neighbouring nation, Ukraine, Prigozhin formed a private army group and had been leading the forces.
Wagner chief Yevgeny Prigozhin warned his forces would "destroy everything" in their way.
"The move was about containment and to remind anyone thinking of inflicting a strategic defeat on us," Putin said.
Recently, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced the planned deployment of short-range nuclear weapons to Moscow's neighbour and partner Belarus, in a move broadly considered to be an advance notice toward the West as it moved forward with military help for Ukraine.
The nuke weapons will be deployed as soon as the adaptation work at the relevant storage facilities is completed-- which is possibly by or around the first week of July.
As per the report, Moscow may be reimporting the components to improve older weapons destined for use in the war-torn zone, relying on help from the nations with which it has long-standing military ties.
According to Peskov, Putin was at his Novo-Ogaryovo residence outside of Moscow at the time. He was not in the Kremlin at the time.
