The Resurgence of Wagner: Putin's Corporate Takeover and Trust in Lukashenko

Yevgeny Prigozhin, the chief of the Wagner mercenary army, resurfaced with a voice message thanking supporters of his failed uprising. Prigozhin's armed insurrection last month, which captured the city of Rostov-on-Don and threatened Moscow, was condemned by President Vladimir Putin. Prigozhin and his men were granted exile in Belarus, and his current whereabouts remain unknown.
