- Russia has been employing private armies to fight its war since the 14th century. During the era of the Russian Tzar, the Russian empire employed the Cossacks. As Russia's invasion of Ukraine reached a stalemate, Putin has reportedly deployed Wagner group to clean up the mess created by Russian army. Who are these mercenaries and why are they deployed by Russia? All this and much more in this week's Crux DeCode.

Saying Chechens army is private militia is like saying troops from North Ireland are UK's private militias.
True, but they are sometimes being used as PMCs, they don't behave like a normal army
These are Kadyrov's private army. There are Chechen fighting alongside Ukraine.
@@MB-cd7eo soo the checens fighting for ukraine are mercenaries
@@tonyjoka2346 a mercenary is someone who’s paid. no one is getting paid in Ukraine except the official military. volunteers don’t get paid….
@@tonyjoka2346
You obviously have some misconceptions. English is not your native language probably.
A mercenary is someone who fights because of the money not for the cause. War is simply an opportunity to make money so they are basically employees who may fight for different employers depending on the pay. They are hired. They don't join or enlist.
Even regular soldiers who enlist in a military are paid but you don't call them mercenaries. They don't switch employers even if another military pays more.
A volunteer who fights because he believes in the cause is not a mercenary either because the money is not the focus. The cause is what they are fighting for.
How can you tell?
They usually gave up a regular civilian or military job they leave behind in order to fight.
And usually mercenaries get paid A LOT OF MONEY compared to regular soldiers. Because it is just another job that is dangerous but pays well to compensate for the risk.
Volunteers may or may not be paid some money as an allowance but often they are actually out of money because they have to make their own way to join.
Everyone has used mercenaries throughout history we used them in Iraq and Afghanistan we just call the security contractors.
Yes, but Vladimir Putin has shown he is either tactical or strategic in his thinking. Also please remember Frank your taking about a guy that is lazy has hell. He just doesn't want to work, so what can you really do?
@@Madame702 and the tactical thinking of the US and NATO was to fight and lose in Iraq and Afghanistan?😂😂😂😂😂
@@kahutochishisumi9056 Dude, Saddam threatened George W. Bush father the mission was to decapitate Iraq. Mission accomplished. 👍⭐😊
@@kahutochishisumi9056 The mission in Afghanistan was never to take out the Taliban. The mission was to make sure that it wouldn't launch another strike on America. Mission accomplished.
@@Madame702 You’re an idixt if you still believe that LOL
How about the US mercenaries groups? The Blackwater? The Academy? They used to go by several names.
We talked about the for years before this. Thousands demanded they be put to trial for their innocent killings in Iraq and Afghanistan, but we've as a whole been highly resistant to convicting them since they were in charge of protecting their presidents who we were having alot of trouble keeping safe
Black water has been in conflict with Russian Wagners, but the globe generally loves those stories because the black waters are almost always on the defense 1-5 and try going diplomatic routes and when the wagners don't seize aggression they die in literal droves during advances against them
I'm pretty sure none of those guys are part of the "secret behind Russia's military success" (name of the video)
Who says Wagoner is not an American group?
@@BobJohnson648 Razman says so.
What kind of nonsense is this presenter talking about? Chechnya is a republic of Russia and the Chechen military is also part of the Russian army, but on a volunteer basis. Previously, Chechens could not join the army, but in 2014 the restrictions were lifted. Now there are Chechens in the Russian army , but there is also a separate special forces and the Russian Guard based in the Republic of Chechnya itself.
Have not seen the footages of chechen flags in mariopaul??
Chechnya is a PUPPET republic of Russia .

The Chechens are not a separate group but a part of the Russian army since Chechnya is a proxy regime of the Russian republic..more than half of their GDP is given to them by Russia yearly
Pure sh*t story pootinz
how do you just give your gdp?
@@dragonlordplacidusax9413 Chechnya gives Russia losts of goods in return. Plus Chechnya doesn't want it's lands flattened by Russia again 😂
@@titanproductions3628 On the other hand, Chechnya had a fight with Russia and its been resolved, you fight with your brother and resolve it too, it doesn't mean you want your brother dead, if Russia falls today, Chechnya will not stand, that is one sure thing ... im even amazed to see more kafkaz people with "Z" and "V" logo on their cars here in Moscow that seeing a slavic person with the logo
Ukraine has had great success against the Chechens so far. In addition, there is a large number of Chechens fighting with Ukraine against Russia. The war in Ukraine is like WW2. It is blood and guts. A large number of soldiers coward out in combat. This type war always favors the home team who has more to lose.
It is very dangerous to be American enemy but fatal being a friend to America. Someone you know in USA government said this
It's Henry Kissinger
cope
This is heartbreaking - but untrue.
Ukraine is US friend which were thrown under the bus by using it as a bait for Russia to invade.
Once invasion has taken place a consensus for economic sanctions could be done in grand scale( being done right now) globally. It's safer to beat Russia in economy than War.
It's too bad that Ukraine has to be a fall guy in this case. Zelensky is the perfect actor in this plan.
Another example is US asked Poland to deliver 30 Mig29 to Ukraine knowing full well Poland would be dragged to be a part of the War. When Poland said it will deliver the planes to US airbase in Germany and US deliver the planes themselves. US declined to do so as didn't want to be part of the War But prefer Poland instead.
"To be an enemy of US is dangerous but to be US ally is also fatal"
Henry Kissinger.
Henry Kissinger!
No.
Wagner group are just mercenaries.
Alpha group are the real badass. Never heard of Alpha group ? Thats because they did their job properly.
😂
What about Beta Group full of cucks? 🤣
Even Ukrainian farmers are more capable than "Alpha group". When Russia says alpha, that means beta.

CRUX can be really confusing with it’s information. As for last few days they were reporting that team Comedian was winning.
And you have no shame to be on the wrong side of history .
@@itsma._ttt
Who’s history???
@@johnboateng184 you will watch and learn very soon .
History of the West who abused slaves and committed genocides after genocides on foreign soil.
It's the views mate. Anyone who speaks for Ukraine today has sympathy and support of the Internet. At the end of the day, these channels earn from these videos
Of course, the US does not employ similar mercenary forces, like perhaps Blackwater Group that has been accused of atrocities?
They’re just trying to cover it up with the Wagner group and make people forget black water was a thing
What’s your point?
@Ben Dover it’s usually the second option. But yes most likely both ^^
Nope they only use iron man.. Kahkahkah
Blackwater hasn't been a thing for over 10 years changing to Xe, and now Academi .
The Warner group are mercenaries however if you look at the conflicts they have been involved, they don't have good outcomes, they are over inflated.
Even the WAGNER group
They the Russians used them in Syria
They attempted to attack an American position
Three hundred of them were left on the ground after this encounter.
If you mean "blackwater" it's actually academi now.
The Wagner group has never been in combat against a well-equipped enemy. They are a gang of thugs whose job is to terrorize civilians. The Chechen volunteers, if you look at the videos of them, are all 'kids'. They've never seen combat, either, and are trained to oppress the Chechen opposition. Cannon fodder, both of them.
Do you mean the investment firm that owns everything
We will not tolerate this biased media coverage. He even don't know which is Wagner, Chechen or Russia 🤣🤣
True.
Harder to fight when you're not sure who the H you're fighting
Chechnya Is part of Russia and chechens part of Russian defense forces though their region is autonomous. How do they become private militia?
This reporter is nonsense.
Indian Media runned by West.
Wait for ibdia china war and let see which side putin will be and it aint india. Hahaha
Very interesting! Can we have the same kind of reports about the US army please?!
Us army is classified!
no because all similar groups in the US aren't affiliated with any military organization. they're conplete separate entities under companies.
@@kajula_kadphises Taliban and Al Quieda weren't supported by the cia the mujahidin were tho.
They can't. The world media is biased
Erik prince private army Blackwater company just like the Cossacks
good Chechnya Muslims once fought against soldiers aggresion from Russia. Chechnya also fight for independence
Chechnya isn't fighting for independence. Chechnya is fighting against Nazis.
No blacks. Latinas nor native American should fight in the US army.
Wagner Group? It's another way to avoid accountability, like any mercenary group.
You should make also a legit Decoded video update, of the Neo-Nazis Azov battalion atrocities in the Donbas region from 2014 up to this very day... at least show both sides
Well now these Azov guys are Freedom fighters and wagner guys are facist russian occupiers.
Proof? Please link a credible source. Every war has atrocities. Was it systematics and institutional?
A handful of guys with tattoo in a giant unit doesnt mean the whole unit is what is on the tattoo.
As long as they show the Russian side of that too.
There is certainly a serious question to answer about Mass murder in the Donbas. Circa 14000 murdered ,When this is over all should be judged . On all sides . Unfortunately the winners right the history books
@MD Akhjar How did you work that one out? If its azov doing the killing then why are you guys bombing civilians?
Ukraine's TV army is the best.

@@legiopatrianostra4702 say kadyrovs not chechens. 95% of chechens support ukraine and hate kadyrov and putin
This channel never talks about 'Azov'
A Neo Nazis military of Ukraine
Because the west owns youtube and they put out what ever they want to braindead zombies to feed in and believe is 100% authentic. They dont mention azov battalion having nazi symbols on their emblems, nor do they mention that zelensky is commiting war crimes but allowing civilians use weopons and fight against a trained miltary instead of evacuating them. Not only that biden son has funded all biological labs in ukraine. Nato hasnt accepted ukraine into nato yet they arming them and sending troops like they part of nato 😆
Dont get me wrong russia invading a country is bad but do you blame russia? Remember the cuban crisis when soviet had missiles there? Usa was complaining and crying, then russia removed it only if nato doesnt expand but over the years nato lied and kept expanding until they got to Ukraine. So of course russia is fearing for its countries safety. If ukraine becomes nato means that nato would be able to use the black sea, and that means russia is vulnerable to attack. Noone talking about all the wars america and uk have commited in middle east. They was all quiet. But now they got their knickers in a twist all of a sudden. West making it seem like russia is so weak, but russia isnt trying to destroy ukraine if they really wanted to take over Ukraine think about it logically, they would of destroyed all trains and train tracks, they would of destroyed all highways, and would have destroyed bridges so ukraine is isolated, i dont believe this west propaganda bs.
It's because the Azov Battalion doesn't exist. It was absorbed into the main defense force of Ukriane to remove its identity long ago, and why don't you guys mention Zelenksky was voted in at Ukriane hoping the Azovs and Chechens (you guys used the Chechens too and complained about them too until your own were sent in) would be dismissed and the Russian ethnic discrimination would come to a end.
The Chechens and Azovs weren't DISCHARGEF because they were deemed to essential for Ukraines defense against a Russian invasion, and since they've proven they were we can't complain about them ANYMORE

Brilliant strategy.
Said Kakiyev is not dead, he's retired and live in Moscow, while not on best of terms with Ramzan they have a lot of mutual respect for each other.
never heard of these countries when it was the USSR.
So the Indian govt supports Russia but there media doesn’t 😝
crux is trying to lift the moral of the russian army
😂😂😂 They're very desperate for Russia to win.
while every single western media channel is trying to glorify ukraine lmao
ur blind
Russia . Morale. ?
So lemme get this .. whoever doesn't say according to Western media nd glorify ucrane is a fake .... No matter what the reality is you have to stand for Western media.... every event has 2 sides nd i like to hear both sides if you dont just dont watch it ....sorted..
Crux is way better than western media which has become cheerleader team for Ukraine instead of reporting news.
Who will fight harder ? Fighting for your family, land and freedom or fighting for a pay check?
The most hardest fight is when fighting without fearing death on the name of a god(s).
wagner group is finance by KGB
Indeed , Putler was a High ranking KGB agent too !
What you forgot to say is that the Zaporozhian Cossacks are the ancestors of the Ukrainians. The Ukrainians are not afraid of Wagner's troops and the Chechens and will eat them alive.
Slava Ukrainii
💉😷🐑🇺🇦❤️
Why tf are ukrainians claiming ancestry to the cossacks? They were different clans of cossacks living on the lands that are now in Ukraine but its pure ignorance to just limit cossacks to ukrainians.
Your sporadic lecture in history & current affairs are very interesting.... 👏
Except it was 90% bs
That Novel - “the Cossacks” - speaks of *Chechens.*
I read it many years ago...are you sure? Great novel...
No Tolstoys Hajdi Murad talks about Chechens
@@algreen1231 yes, I checked it recently. I recall the term, "Chechen brave" from the novel. Seems the Cossacks (in the novel) had their share of fights with the Chechens.
Addendum: checked it again, using the above phrase in quotes as a search term, along with the title of the novel. I’d post a link to google books (“the Cossacks”), but TH-cam would remove my comment.
I thought, and hoped, there was something in what CRUX reports. Well,.. better look elsewhere.

CRUX, thanks for this high accuracy information.
I like the way you relate with History events, the Russian Empire and the Cossack-Z.
What are you on ? this is a propaganda piece.
I thought CRUX understands geography. Funny they do not even know a country boundaries.
You mean like US has "The Academy", former Blackwater?

Ramzon Kadyrov good job men 🙏🙏🙏 .
Ohhhh wharever theyre driven by more brilliant and brave doldiers of ukraine
Rather interesting.
to be fair CRUX should do another documentary on American mercenary company Blackwater and its founder Eric Prince and their roles in Syria etc
Americans called their mercenaries contractors.
Chuck Norris will deal with them
First picture of Utkin is false, like come on it's two different people....
Mercenaries has a limitation. People for hire do expect to survive and use their money to live for. They know there are a risk but if the risk increases they demad more money. So ultimately they will be to expensive. Low risk countries as CAR, Libya and Syria can do but Donbas with an increasingly effective Ukranian army is different. And untill now the chechens does not have shown much.
When the Russians call the leader of a viscious mercenary group “the cook”. It’s probably not about cooking food
if you think the cook is bad, let me introduce you to the cleaner
Surely this is just the tip of the iceberg of PMCs
Putin and Utkin ? Not just similar ...
It's kind of like the United States use the Blackwater
What about Black Water?
The Group is too small, to help in Ukraine better that they keep them in Syria.
Chechens are allied of Russia not mercenaries, mercenaries are the ones arrived in Ukraine to fight against Russia and were slaughtered by hundreds by russian missiles 👍
No different to the strategy of using the French foreign legion or the military for hire used by US in Iraq
what about blackwater and white helmets????
I wished India also have this kind of private military contractors..
we have RSS/VHP/Bajrangdal
@@liberalManifesto68 does RSS VHP bajrangdal operates outside India if not then no use.
All this private contractor stuff is really reminding me of MGSV
All governments and heads of state have their "go to" people, not just Russias Putin.
Very smart on the Russians part.
So no one is going to talk about the nazi tattoos on Utchkin's body? Or that the Wagner group suffered losses? Or that Kadyrov lied about his Chechens not sustaining losses and retreated into Belarus in the first weeks of the war?
Also "severed" isn't "served", there are way too many typo's and this frankly hurts my ability to take crux seriously.
Are you refering to the 300 soldiers who hitch hiked back to south osetia georgia? I have seen several reports on this.
Who cares?

Why not talk about blackwater which killed thousands in Iraq?
LOL - Russia’s milliard succes’s???? - what planet are you Living on? 😂
A single tactical nuke warhead or FOAB over Kyiv would turn the tide of this special ops of Russia to its favor but Putin prefers conventional rather than WMD war since Ukriane is more important to Russian Strategical moves agianst the West and it was formar Soviet member too so he might have some soft corner for its existence. If it were a European Union member or some other country then by now definitely he would have engaged either of the war heads for sure and gained victory in a swift and decisive manner. Don't under estimate Russian might by this conflict remember even US, NATO and EU have distanced themselves from direct conflict with Russian Federation and engaged in proxy war by supplies to Ukraine. Imagine if it was not Russia, would US stay away from the war upon a state of its interest?
Russia just cares about the civilian citizens. Hear what refugees from Mariupol say. They all say that "Azov" is shooting at them and they are hiding in residential buildings
Most of your nukes don't work....they require yearly service and the money for that was syphoned off to buy boats and villas!! If if wasn't such a crime it would be funny! Lol
@@fzr1730 yeah you are right buddy. Since this ops begin the Civilian casualties are under control though it is a pain to us. American war around the world had millions of civilian casualties to date compare to this. President Putin might want Ukraine as such it is but Zelensky making Ukriane to bleed to death and destructions.
@@ashleylittle8403 Russian nukes are far better to work than US. US has around 800 tactical nukes but Russia has 2000 in its arsenal. Why can't Russia use one from it as US used it on Japan. To my knowledge Russians have more value for human lives than US thats what stops Mr.Putin from using it though they suffer casualties.
The FIRST nuke that Putin uses will be his LAST, since he wants to go down in Russian History as the "Savior of Russia" it's very doubtful he will ever use any nuclear weapon, even a smaller tactical weapon! Remember, other than it's old nuclear assets, Russia is really POOR and WEAK, with an Armed Forces armed in the most part with old obsolete technology, in addition, the GNP of Russia is LESS than that of the State of California!
OK no problem with any nations to hire private armies, mercenaries, nor commandos only not to harm civilians... Captured enemy if not put into prison let them go... Fight another day... No torture nor killing free, rape or murder, massacre.... Just fighting fighting to win and survive....
Ain't Kady the foolish father who took his 14 year old son to war?
That's not a stable ally for any decent human being.
put tactical in front of it and its sound meaner NOT
Russia has a lot of aces...... 😂😂😂

You are talking asif Russia did not have a mighty army that can defeat any army that attack Russia
Wagner is Russia’s best troops from what I gather following this stuff for years. I also notice you do not hear anything about speznaz. What they did in Syria was very impressive. The combat footage pinpoint motor rounds I have not seen these guys in Ukraine. I also think Russia is planning a Armoured assault after Bakhmut falls. Open to other options just very interesting
Contract hiring - corporates or wars !!
Just one question why countries allow private military groups? And can I start a company like that too? And if I have a company like this a can kill people in the whole world without going to jail?
Russia used send soldiers from Cuba to fight there wars in Africa
