Emergence of PMC Redut in Russia under direct control of the Kremlin?
Redut has also garnered the attention of Russian oligarchs seeking to secure their corporate interests within Russia. Moreover, PMC Redut relies entirely on Russian state institutions for its weaponry and ammunition, affording military intelligence commanders a substantial degree of leverage when engaging with the group. The report highlights Redut’s extensive history of aligning with Kremlin interests, not only in safeguarding Russian interests abroad but also in its origins. While Prigozhin was alive, and his influence within Russia and with the Russian military was on the ascent due to his proximity to Putin, Russian elites reportedly bolstered Redut’s capabilities with the intention of positioning it as a potential rival to the Wagner Group.
