Of course the Wagner group is involved with the coup. At this point they're like a comical gaggle of supervillains.
putin is just a real big pos
Truth.
Wagner are already in the neighbouring countries and have been for years.
It's just that many people in the West didn't notice them until Ukraine. It's the Bader Meinhoff effect.
Niger is a major source of uranium and has both French and US military bases, so it's higher in the Western news cycle than Mali was.
Sounds like the start of another jagged alliance game...
