He was expecting a more general uprising. Which never happened.

That is partly why Russia started implementing martial law in preparation.

On reflection this is right such a shame civilians didn't follow in numbers, would have been cool seeing civilians rise up and not supporting Putin marching to Moscow.

Assuming this was genuine then this agreement is irrelevant, as if there's going to be zero punishment for almost toppling the system and chickening out at the last moment...

These dudes are going to find themselves with slit throats and being used as fodder.


My guess is that Prigozhin hoped he could get all the way to the Kremlin without a fight, but it was looking more like the defenders in Moscow would fight and Prigozhin decided he either doesn't want to fight or he doesn't have enough soldiers to fight and called it quits

They're more talking about the plant not tactical nukes.

They've previously stated that use of any nuclear weapons would have serious consequences.
