" When Prigozhin started his march to Moscow, we didn't have any optimistic scenarios or what will happen. No One around me was happy about Prigozhin taking Moscow, " Anastasia said.
" All scenarios seemed pretty bad. And The only thing that kind of felt hopeful was that something seemed to be changing. Some factors were Making It possible to change. And Then it ended. "
By The End of Saturday, Prigozhin called The advance off and ordered his men back to base. His troops had come within 124 miles (200km) of reaching Moscow.
