Russian mercenaries have taken command of at least one EU-trained battalion in the Central African Republic (CAR) to help "predate" the mineral-rich country, according to a leaked report.
"Today, most deployed FACA units are operating under direct command or supervision by WG mercenaries. WG has also established a solid influence on the FACA general staff and other government institutions," the EU foreign service's report, dated 15 November and seen by EUobserver, said.
FACA refers to the Forces Armées centrafricaines, CAR president Faustin-Archange Touadéra's main army of some 12,500 men.
WG stands for Wagner Group, a Kremlin-linked paramilitary force.
EU military advisors have been training CAR soldiers for years as part of a wider international presence in the war-torn country.
One unit "already certified by EUTM RCA", the EU Military Training Mission in République centrafricaine, was FACA's Bataillon d'Infanterie Territoriale 7, the EU report noted.
But the EU-trained battalion was "currently controlled by WG personnel ... against the agreement between EUTM and the CAR government," the leaked report said.
FACA soldiers had little contact with FACA general staff, "other than by cell phone with the sous-chef d'opérations in the EMA [Etat-major des Armées], who is closely linked with the RU [Russian] presence in CAR", the report said.

LOL. The French-influenced countries if Africa are cesspits, where they pick the most corrupt gangbangers to put in charge and replace then in a coup everytime the government shows signs of competence.
The deal is that the French have gold and diamonds extracted by slave labor and the gangs rob everyone who still have something to keep everyone on squalor and continue the racket.
They hired Wagner in 2016 and they find abd hang gangbangers resulting in the dramatic increase in safety and the expansion of freedom and prosperity, where the slaves are freed and wash their own gold they are selling for high profit.
The GDP of CAR per capita increased by 50% over the years five years and covid didn’t put a dent on it.
Of course Maricon of France and Jose Borrel of the EU are raising stink but the Africans couldn’t care less.
Mali is next evicting the French, where they are pretending to fight islamists but bomb the government forces and civilian militia opposing the gangs.
It is a sort of odd situation when a bunch of 200 mercenaries who only have rifles and rope achieve more than the entire Foreign Legion on ormor and with air support.
If you have the people tipping you off as to where and who the gang bangers are, you can accomplish a lot with relatively little fancy gear.
>>They hired Wagner in 2016 and they find and hang gangbangers resulting in the dramatic increase in safety and the expansion of freedom and prosperity,
Chicago, Baltimore, etc. should hire them.
That the future, when somebody finds a use for Baltimore.
What’s the difference between Baltimore, Philly, and the C.A.F.?
Is that a trick question or just rhetorical?
Rhetorical.
