Gravitas | Russia's Wagner group brings Putin a fortune from the African gold trade
In a sinister plot, the Wagner Group is exploiting Africa's gold resources.

Gaining control of mines in the Central African Republic and Sudan, Wagner's operations extend Russia's geopolitical influence and indirectly finance its global campaigns.
