The Wagner Group | Power Players
In this episode of Sibylline's "Power Players" series, Intelligence Analyst Claire Brady explores the shadowy and influential Wagner Group. Founded in 2014 by Dmitry Utkin, a former Russian military intelligence officer, the Wagner Group has evolved from a small band of elite military personnel into a formidable force with a global reach.
Known for its military deployments in countries such as Syria, Libya, and Ukraine, Wagner has also been involved in training foreign militaries, intelligence operations, and exerting economic influence through mining contracts and arms deals. Despite its illegal status under Russian law, the group has operated with the Kremlin's tacit approval, acting as a tool of Russian foreign policy. However, recent internal conflicts and leadership changes have weakened Wagner, but the group's extensive network and potential for influence remain a concern for nations worldwide.
