Grupa „Vagner” (rus. Группа Вагнера, engl. Wagner Group), zvanično PVK „Vagner” (rus. ЧВК «Вагнер»), je ruska privatna paravojna organizacija.[1] Za Grupu Vagner se smatra da je bliska predsedniku Rusije Vladimiru Putinu,[2] dok Vlada Rusije tvrdi da Grupa Vagner ne postoji legalno jer su privatne vojske zabranjene u Rusiji.[3] Iako Grupa Vagner nije ideološki vođena,[4][5] elementi Grupe Vagner su povezani sa neonacistima i krajnje-desničarskim ekstremistima.[6][7][8][9][10][11][12]
Grupa Vagner je učestvovala u ratu na istoku Ukrajine, gde je pomagala separatističkim snagama samoproglašenih DNR i LNR od 2014. do 2015. godine. Njeni borci su navodno učestvovali u raznim sukobima širom sveta, uključujući građanske ratove u Libiji, Siriji, Centralnoafričkoj Republici i Maliju.[2]
Trenutno su aktivni u sukobima u Ukrajini.[13]
Smatra se da je Grupa Vagner u vlasništvu ruskog poslovnog čoveka Jevgenija Prigožina ili finansijski povezana sa njegovim poslovnim aktivnostima.[3]
Dana 23. juna 2023. godine, Grupa Vagner je započela pokušaj oružane pobune protiv Oružanih snaga Ruske Federacije i Ministarstva odbrane.[14] Međutim, sve je završeno mirnim dijalogom i odlaskom Prigožina u Belorusiju.

Various elements of the current Wagner Group have ties to neo-Nazis and far-right extremism.”

In a photo that first emerged on Russian VK accounts and a Telegram group associated with the mercenaries, the group’s leader, Dmitry Utkin, dons neo-Nazi tattoos, including a swastika, Waffen SS lightning bolts, and a Reichsadler Eagle. Wagner mercenaries have reportedly left behind neo-Nazi propaganda in the conflict zones they have meddled in. In Libya, pictures appeared of Wagner combatants, some garbed in German World War II uniforms, purportedly re-enacting scenes from Rommel’s operation against British troops in Libya in 1942.”

They also spray-painted swastikas and SS lightning bolts as graffiti wherever they went. Nazi symbols are popular among the mercenaries; in Ukraine in April, a leader of Task Force Rusich, a Wagner subsidiary, was videotaped wearing the Valknot and Tatenkoph of the 3rd SS Panzer Division. Wagner itself is named after the notoriously antisemitic German composer, whose operas famously made Hitler weep. According to the group’s origin story, a former Spetsnaz (Soviet special forces) soldier named Dmitry Utkin used “Wagner” as his callsign while fighting in the Donbass region in eastern Ukraine in 2014. Utkin, who many consider Wagner’s operational commander, has tattoos of Nazi “SS” epaulets along his collar bones. Many founding members of Wagner also belong to the ultra-nationalist and white supremacist group known as the Russian Imperial Movement, which the U.S. State Department has declared a terrorist organization.”
