Yevgeny Prigozhin is dead, as is his deputy. The infamous Wagner mercenaries are scattered. Without leader. Without heavy weapons. Who pushes themselves into this vacuum? Who will do Vladimir Putin’s dirty work in the future? The answer: the new private army of resource giant Gazprom. The “crown” explains the background.
One thing is certain: the Russian president will not be able to do without the luxury of a private army in the future either. Why? A loyal group of mercenaries who feel unbound by international laws and norms, can be deployed anywhere in the world without any problems and blindly follow even the most questionable orders, is every autocrat’s military wet dream.
