What is the #Wagner Group?

The Wagner Group (Russian: Группа Вагнера, tr. Grupa Vagnera), also known as #PMCWagner, #ChVKWagner, or #CHVKVagner, is a mercenary outfit that operates on behalf of GRU and directly under the Kremlin.
Putin's right-hand man, oligarch Yevgeniy Prigozhin, was in touch with both the #Kremlin and #Assad before #Wagner mercenaries launched an attack on U.S. troops in #Syria, which led to 200- 300 dead mercenaries in Feb 2018. washingtonpost.com/world/national…
The #Wagner Group founder is Dmitriy Valeryevich Utkin, who was born in Kirovohrad Oblast (then the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic of the USSR) in 1970, currently a military intelligence reserve commander for the Russian government. Circled below.
The founder of the #Wagner Group Dmitriy Valeryevich Utkin was a Lieutenant Colonel & Brigade Commander of GRU's 700th Independent Spetsnaz Detachment of 2nd Independent Brigade, reportedly, infatuated with Adolf Hitler and Nazi ideology.

He's a Nazi.
