The group wagner was founded in 2014 and has always supported the Kremlin. They helped the government to seize Ukrainian territories in the same year.

Already in the war of Ukraine the mercenaries were used to take the front line in the battle. The Wagner group is responsible for the victories in the cities of Bakhmut and Soledar.

The sanctions of the richest countries in the world against Russia because of the war affected the finances of the mercenaries. Yevgeny Prigozhin needed to recruit Russian prisoners and civilians to expand the group during the war.

In Ukraine alone there are 20,000 members of the Wagner group. Interestingly, the Russian Constitution prohibits the existence of private military groups. The Russian government, however, declares the group to be a privately owned site armed security.

Russia has contracted the group to operate in explorations in Africa. Mercenaries have influenced politics in African countries and acted in some conflicts. The number of mercenary groups has increased in the world, thanks to the demand of some countries for services.
