"Wagner PMC" called a unique military class
A discussion of the role of modern private military companies has appeared in Russian-language Telegram channels. During the discussion, one of the authors called “Wagner PMCs” a unique military class.
According to the author of the “Sons of the Monarchy” channel, the activities of modern PMCs are vaguely reminiscent of the craft of the English corsairs, who in the XNUMXth century helped London gain an advantage over the Spanish fleet in the New World.
The corsairs received a patent from the British crown for their activities and attacked Spanish ships, engaging in battle at sea and on land. Thus, they were an unofficial fighting unit of the crown and worked where London could not use the official army.
Today, PMCs solve a huge number of combat missions at the farthest frontiers, in the solution of which it is impossible to involve official armed forces.
Wagner PMC carries out brilliant military operations where, for various reasons, Russia cannot use a regular army. In fact, Russian chukashniks form a unique military class, something between the Russian Cossacks before the revolution and the English corsairs during the exploration of America,” the author of the post is sure.
In addition, the PMC solves another important task: it helps the authorities of other countries get rid of militants terrorizing the local population.
