 Kremlin increases control over Wagner Group by incorporating into Rosgvadia. British Ministry of Defence informs that the Kremlin has managed to strengthen control over the mercenaries of the Wagner Private Military Company, following a rebellion by their former leader, Yevgeny Prigoshin. Some of the mercenaries have been integrated into the Russian National Guard, Rosgvadia. According to the summary, on December 25, 2023, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a law allowing the Rosgvadia to create its own volunteer formations. It is already known that Rosgvadia has incorporated three former assault units of the Wagner Private Military Group Company, the 15th, 16th and 17th, into its first so-called volunteer corps. British intelligence suggests that Rosgvadia is likely to deploy its new volunteer detachments in Ukraine and Africa. It is reported that Rosgvadia is offering volunteers six-month contracts for participation in the war against Ukraine and nine-month contracts for service in Africa. The incorporation of former Wagner assault detachments into Rosgvadia's volunteer corps highly likely indicates that Rosgvadia has been successfully subordinated to Rosgvadia, increasing the Retton State's command and control over the Wagner Group, the summary states.
