Putin:

Since the start of the counteroffensive, Kyiv has lost 259 tanks and 780 armored vehicles.

Putin:

Over the year, through Voentorg, supplying food, Concord (Prigozhin) earned 80 billion rubles ($ 940 million).

Lukashenko said that in Belarus, a whole brigade of security forces was ready to be transferred to Russia if the need arose.

Putin on Prigozhin:

I hope that no one stole anything or stole less, but we will deal with it all.

Lukashenko spoke about the proposal to Putin not to rush into a cruel decision:

The most dangerous thing, as I understand it, is not what it was, the situation, but how it could develop and its consequences. That was the most dangerous. I suggested Putin not to rush.

Let's talk with Prigozhin, with his commanders.

To which he told me: “Listen, Sasha, it's useless. He doesn't even pick up the phone, he doesn't want to talk to anyone .”

Lukashenko tells how he managed to reach Prigozhin:

I asked: “Where is he?” - “In Rostov”.

I say: “Good. A bad peace is better than any war. Do not rush. I'll try to contact him.”

He (Putin) once again says: "It's useless."

I say: "Okay, wait."

Somewhere we talked for probably half an hour.

At 11 o'clock... I should have found these phones too... I say: "How can I contact him? Give me the phone."

He says: “Most likely, the FSB has a telephone.”

By the middle of the day, we had as many as three channels through which we can talk with Rostov.

Lukashenka says he knows how Shoigu works and believes that he is sometimes undeservedly criticized.

Lukashenko:

Prigozhin arrived in Belarus.

Lukashenko says such a unit as Wagner PMC will not hurt the Belarusian army.

Lukashenko said that a significant part of nuclear weapons had already been brought to Belarus:

The Poles and others believe that Wagner will guard nuclear weapons, and so on. Wagner will not guard any nuclear weapons.

Lukashenko says in the course of negotiations with him, Prigozhin abandoned his demands, including the resignation of Shoigu.

Meanwhile, Shoigu received the Minister of Defense of Cuba in Moscow today.
