There is a lot we don't know about the motivations behind..and the consequences following Wagner group leader Yevgeny Prigozhin's actions in Russia this weekend. What we do know about what one senior administration official calls a "very bizarre episode," is that there seems to be a pause, at least for now, due to a truce struck between Vladimir Putin and Prigozhin that was brokered by the President of Belarus, a Putin ally.
