TL;DR Summary

Poland is bolstering its eastern border with Belarus in response to the relocation of Wagner Group mercenaries to the neighboring country. The move comes after the failed mutiny of the private military outfit against Russia's military leadership. Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko confirmed the arrival of Wagner leader Yevgeny Prigozhin in Minsk, and reports suggest that construction is underway for a camp to accommodate thousands of Wagner fighters. Poland's Deputy Prime Minister Jaroslaw Kaczynski stated that this development poses a potential threat to Ukraine, Lithuania, and Poland, prompting the decision to strengthen defense at the eastern border. Additionally, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, and Finland have agreed to coordinate and enhance border measures with Russia and Belarus.
