Prigozhin says Wagner Group is turning its convoys around.

They wanted to dissolve Wagner Group. On June 23, we set off on our “march of justice.” In the span of 24 hours, we got within 200 kilometers of Moscow. During the time, not a single drop of our fighters’ blood was shed. Now we’ve reached a point where bloodshed is possible. So, understanding the full responsibility for the potential shedding of Russian blood from either side, we’re turning our columns around and heading back in the opposite direction towards our field camps, according to plan.

it’s possible that he was offered some kind of deal

It's been reported that Lukashenko (of Belarus) brokered a deal. I haven't seen any further details.

Rumor only, part of the deal was he answers directly to Putin only. He no longer answers to the ministry of defense.

and to seal the deal, Putin has invited Prigozhin and his top leadership to tea.

Putin passes you a cup of tea. Do you accept? o.0

Only if I've spent decades building up an immunity to polonium.
