The Russian authorities have confirmed the death of the group\u2019s leader, Yevgeny Prigozhin, in a plane crash, and Russia\u2019s president, Vladimir Putin, has sent mixed signals on his plans for Wagner.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Attention is now shifting to whether Wagner, which Prigozhin built into a global empire over nearly a decade, ultimately will die, too. The Kremlin is believed to be considering ways to bring Wagner under more direct control, experts say, but hasn\u2019t made any final decisions on what to do with the group and its trained fighters, geopolitical inroads and business interests.<\/p>\n<p>Wagner fighters are already joining volunteer formations, as well as official units, under the Russian armed forces.<\/p>\n<p>Analysis: \u201cI think that PMC Wagner, in itself, as a structure, most likely won\u2019t exist,\u201d said Aleksandr Borodai, a member of the Russian Parliament who briefly served in 2014 as a Moscow-installed proxy leader in Donetsk, Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Source; New York Times <\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wagner, the once-powerful Russian private military company that fell out of favor with the Kremlin after an aborted mutiny in June, has been cast into [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":12692,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[3161],"class_list":["post-12691","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-world-news","tag-wagner-future-leaderless"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
