The Wagner Group, officially known as PMC Wagner, is a Russian state-funded paramilitary organization. It is a private military company (PMC) composed of mercenaries, and has been described as a de facto private army of Russian president Vladimir Putin's former close ally Yevgeny Prigozhin. The group operates beyond the law in Russia, where private military companies are officially forbidden. There is evidence that Wagner was used as a proxy by the Russian government, allowing the Russian state to have plausible deniability for military operations abroad, and allowing it to hide the true casualties of Russia's foreign interventions. Wagner used Russian Armed Forces infrastructure and was secretly funded by the Russian state until 2023. While the group is not ideologically driven, elements of Wagner are linked to neo-Nazism and far-right extremism.
