Russia rebellion: Lukashenko told Wagner leader that Moscow would “squash you like a bug”

On Tuesday, Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko shared his version of talks with Wagner Group leader Yevgeny Prigozhin, as members of the mercenary group marched on Moscow over the weekend.
According to Lukashenko, he managed to talk Prigozhin out of trying to enter Moscow, warning him that the Russian military would “squash you like a bug.”
Lukashenko also said that he tried to convince Prigozhin that his demand to have Moscow hand over Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu and General Chief of Staff of the Russian Army Valery Gerasimov was unrealistic.
In addition, the Belarusian president expressed concern that the troubles in Russia could spread to neighbouring Belarus. “If Russia falls, we will be buried in the wreckage,” he told assembled military personnel.
The exile of Prigozhin, the 62-year-old owner of the Wagner Group, was part of a deal that ended the short-lived mutiny in Russia. He and some of his troops were welcome to stay “for some time” at their own expense, Lukashenko said.

Being brutally honest. I believe in his version of how this mutiny unfolded.

[@Nalololol]

I think the roles were reversed. Putin wouldn't answer the phone.

[@dirtydingus5465]

Impossible! You seriously believe Putin would have allowed this much egg to be thrown on his face? Trust me, the reason behind all this will unfold eventually! This is all a ruse by the KGB baby man himself!

[@mvrts]

He's not wrong

[@mjchiwara]

Definitely a weak small Putin.

[@morguetheunholy]

Great job on Russia for showing restraint...

[@Venommale]

So Lukashenko said that himself "They will squash you like a bug" eh? Wagner: deliver this to him if he is real man say it in person don't hide in Kremlin😂

[@user-xu2yj8vo4g]

Lukassheko will soon deliver wagner boss to putin on a platter to be killed

[@trespasser121]

He didn't pick up the phone to hear it from the source, clear now?

[@mooooooooooomooooooooooomo6829]

I think the squashing is done lol

[@hontiveros1445]

more recruit specially in belarus will come.. wagner will be international if it happens.

[@nancetardiff339]

Well check again

@@nancetardiff339 yup coz im outside russia I have all resources. unlike inside russia you can only hear what putin says or you die 🥲

[@jayay4660]

Basically they went Rouge on a strike to protest.

[@Aaron-rw3lv]

And shot down some military air craft as one usually does at a “protest”

[@hansharz8321]

I still think is was all a ploy. But for the RU public they have to keep the narrative, Prigo went maniac.

[@jimmyarbutus2555]

It seems like, as a smaller weaker neighbour, Lukashenko is in awe of Russia's abilities, even after witnessing their abject failures in Syria and Ukraine. This reminds me of a bullied kid who still fears his childhood bully after growing up. He will never understand that what he used to be afraid of has grown older and more feeble as time has passed. Er ,uh, watch out!!! He will beat you up. Ha ha ha.

[@zeeshandogar9406]

its cuz Putin has helped a dictator like him stay in power for so long.

[@muhammadzohaib3747]

Haha yeah we r watching US nato European Union abilities as they are struggling to counter a single Russia. Clowns like u feed on propaganda.

[@martinberrigan2462]

Assad runs Syria,a failed coup once again by the American's who once again go straight to bed with Isis,and were at war with them in Irag,and send them in for a failed coup attempt.Oh right!,that Irag war Americans kill I think it was 200.000 over chemical weapon's,I think they found a bottle of Lestoil.They've taken a whack of Ukraine and not much war happening in Russia.Oh the bully part well that was fun.

[@MarkoPolo1810]

Their failures in Syria?? 😂 absolutely destroyed ISIS and the “moderate rebels”. Destroyed the rebels so bad they are in a little tiny enclave in the north close to Turkeys boarder 😂 only reason any of them are still standing is because of negotiations with that Smug Erdogan

[@melaninbotswana2474]

Failure what have you been smoking without russia USA invaders would had a field day Assad would have been topled and a puppet installed it didn't happen and we all know why 😂😂😂

Another objective of the smo massively backfired 😂

[@boblee6101]

Strongest country in Europe? 😂 Not even close. Off by a long shot. Probably the weakest at this point.

[@majorseventh2699]

Pootin's puppet.

[@Aaron-rw3lv]

Funny I would have never thought Putin was so weak he would suffer a bug who said “it’s doesn’t matter Russia will be getting a new president” to live 😂

[@Aaron-rw3lv]

@Yuri-uy5mu you could try but he is clearly more fit and capable in every way especially next to a small weak man like Putin.

[@Aaron-rw3lv]

@Yuri-uy5mu you know our PM is actually a fighter. When has Putin last got in the ring? I’m sure Justin could knock him out first punch.

[@Aaron-rw3lv]

@Yuri-uy5mu it’s actually so funny because it doesn’t matter to our superior values but to your caveman values it must really hurt to know that our PM could beat your leader in a fist fight.

[@Aaron-rw3lv]

@@5thelementcannabisproduction I don’t think anyone is trying to change Russian laws. When the terrorists in Russia are dealt with there will be no people left for laws to apply to.

[@UkrainianPunk180]

​@Yuri-uy5mu he's your PM as well. Unless you come to Canadian news KZbin channels just to comment which would make you incredibly pathetic

каждый народец стоит своего царя, подзаборный наперсточник putin, волей судьбы назначенный княжить, задержался у кормушки на четверть века и закончится только когда его вынесут ногами вперед, ну а судьба страны как всегда в полном тумане.
