prigojin didn't run much inside wagner except his mouth.Interesting that it's still going after Prigozhin.
It is mining industry production potential....no one will let them alone....nor mafia, nor west or China, nor Russia etc...Any time Europe has a conflict, they can't help but involve Africa.
If African leaders/juntas were smart, they'd steer well clear of Russia, France and anyone else that wants to them to die pointlessly in a conflict that's nothing to do with them.
I would figure not many
Money is absolutely horrible for an american
This. American and British ex-Military have a better rep than Russian mercs, because they are usually trained to a higher standard. So USA/UK PMC's get the best paying jobs. Russians get the scraps, like raping, pillaging and burning their way through African countries.
Pay peanuts, get monkeys.
- I remember some years ago, PMC's talking about the lack of good paying jobs. A legionaire, a american elite soldier or a brit will have the same paying oportunities today, they had 10 years ago?
Problem to me is their presence in Libya, if euros were less cucks on immigration first should be take control of Libya to get a new friend doing the Gheddafi barrier job as during Berlusconi eraI actually find it hilarious that they are under national guard these days, guess god emperor wants to keep them close
But yea they pushed french out of mali and niger due to macrons weakness and are gaining ground
Russias and chinas influence in general is growing in that part of world
Money hungry ones probably prefer get latino cartels moneyI wonder how many former American military men have worked for the Wagner Group.
Obviously Prigozhyn was lying when he claimed that millions of Americans had applied to work for him.
But even so, there must be a fair number of vets who did stints.

Matt Best talks about working as a contractor for the CIA. The money and conditions were a lot better than he got in the Rangers. Some of his buddies were PMC's, and they said the same.
Looking at it from wrong angle
Russia pays absolutely ridiculous money for wagners guys for russias standard, no need to pay more, they do not pay peanuts. Relatively as much as guys in west considering countrys average pay
Considering training professional part of wagner is same level of west, every single one of our volunteers in ukr said they are very good, lots of experience, lots of know how. The prisoner part sucked ass
Correct about pillaging raping amd all that stuff
This video helps explain why France is so eager to get involved in the Ukraine - Russia conflict.
Well worth watching.
