Putin’s ‘private army’ stationed in Ukraine, does all the dirty work – know everything about the Wagner Group

The fierce war between Russia and Ukraine has been more than 8 months. But so far neither of the two countries has given up. However, the whole world is wondering how Ukraine, which is considered very weak compared to Russia, has been in war for so long. However, Russia is also suffering heavy losses in this battle. At the same time, Putin has now taken such a decision that along with the people of Russia itself, the army is also in panic. According to the report, Putin had taken the help of the Private Army (Wegner Group) after seeing the shortage of troops in the war with Ukraine.

In the same sequence, a billionaire businessman has claimed that the leader of the Wagner group now has as much political influence as a minister in the Kremlin. According to a report in The Guardian, Mikhail Khodorkovsky has said that the Wagner group had as much access to Putin as formal government officials had. Wagner emerged in Ukraine in 2014 and is suspected by the West of doing the Kremlin’s “dirty work” in countries such as Syria and the Central African Republic.

Putin’s personal army is active in Ukraine!
However, Russia has always denied this allegation. Currently, Wegner is active in Ukraine, Syria and some African countries. It is alleged that the group is involved in a campaign of terrorism in Ukraine, including murder, rape, targeting of infrastructure and planting explosives around nuclear facilities. However, the Wagner Group does not officially exist.

Yevgeny Prigozhin’s dominance as ministers
The Shadow Force was founded by Yevgeny Prigozhin, a businessman associated with the Kremlin. Mikhail Khodorkovsky has said that Prigozhin had equal influence with other senior ministers in the Kremlin because of his personal relationship with the leader. “Prigozhin’s influence is almost equal to that of the Defense Minister of Russia, or the Minister of Foreign Affairs,” he said. “Prigozhin was close enough to Putin that he was even allowed to sign a pardon from the president to allow him to admit criminals from prisons ‘regardless of the gravity of the crimes’,” he said.

Putin’s ‘private army’
Wagner’s people have been active in recent years in Ukraine, Syria, Libya, the Central African Republic and Mali. Critics see it as a shadow force controlled by Russian President Vladimir Putin, used to promote Russian interests abroad by providing front-line fighters, trainers and advisers.
