[LBUA] Wagner the Russian private military company is recruiting militants to carry out a mission in the African country of Mali. At the same time, natives of Ukraine, in particular residents of the occupied territories of Crimea and Donbas, are not taken on this task.
Relevant ads began to appear in publics associated with the APC in the social network "VKontakte," reports the BBC. Here is one of their ads on Youtube. Slickly done, IMO. Almost made me want to apply. Almost.
To perform the "mission" recruit very different professionals: translators from French, health instructors, surgeons, therapists, general practitioners, engineers, cooks, drivers. All military specialties are especially in demand: sappers, miners, operators and mechanics of unmanned aerial vehicles.
Georgian citizens are also not admitted to the PMC. It is specified that neither natives of the self-proclaimed "Donetsk People's Republic" and "Lugansk People's Republic," nor residents of the Russian-annexed Crimea will be able to enroll in Wagner, which "causes some indignation among many participants in hostilities in eastern Ukraine."
According to the BBC, the recruitment of ready to go to Africa PMC has been conducting since August at the Molkino test site in the Krasnodar Territory. Some of the military have already left for Mali.
Earlier, the London newspaper Times, citing diplomatic sources, reported that a contingent of 1,000 Russian mercenaries would go to Mali under an agreement between Wagner PMC and the military that seized power in the African republic.
After that, France, Germany and Estonia, whose peacekeepers are also in the country, said they would withdraw their troops from Mali if there was a Russian Wagner PMC.
The EU is also talking about severing relations with Mali in the event of a contract with the APC.
During the UN General Assembly session in New York, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov confirmed that the Mali authorities had contracted with Wagner .
At the same time, the interim Prime Minister of Mali, Shogel Kokalla Maiga, explained that the country is cooperating with the PMC due to the reduction of France's military presence in this African country.
The former French colony of Mali is one of the largest and poorest countries in Africa. The country has no access to the sea, much of its territory is occupied by the Sahara Desert. The population professes Islam.
In May this year, the Malian military arrested interim President Ba Ndao, Prime Minister Moktar Uan and Defense Minister General Suleiman Dukure. The reason was the refusal of the president and prime minister to include in the transitional government Colonels Modibo Kone and Sadio Kamaru, active participants in last year's military coup.
In July, Mali's transitional president, Colonel Assimi Goytu, who came to power after the May military coup, was assassinated.
Mali is not the only new African country where mercenaries from Russia may appear in the near future. After Libya, Sudan and the CAR, where they have been for a long time.
In early September, according to the BBC, political scientists working with Prigogine were to prepare several analytical notes analyzing the situation in neighboring Mali's Guinea.
A military coup also took place in this African country on September 5. President Alpha Conde was taken into custody and Colonel Mamadou Dumbuya came to power.
St. Petersburg businessman and Putin's "cook" Yevgeny Prigogine is called the creator of Wagner's PMC.
