“Security Export”: What Are The Successors Of PMC Wagner Doing In Africa Now?

At the end of 2023, Russia’s MoD established a new and significant entity—the African Corps (AC)—which replaced the legendary private military company (PMC) Wagner. This shift marked the start of a new phase in Russia’s strategy in Africa. Having gone through its formative phase, by the summer of 2025, it can confidently be said that the AC has proven itself to be a highly effective organization. But what is it currently involved in?

The Corps is effectively operating in countries such as the Central African Republic, Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger, actively fighting terrorist groups and securing key infrastructure. Thanks to the reputation inherited from PMC Wagner, the Corps is not perceived as a tool of “white colonization,” which facilitates its successful integration into local communities.
