— Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes, 2024-03-22

The Wagner Group is a Russia-based unincorporated private military entity, which was established in 2014 as a successor organisation of the Slavonic Corps. It is led by Pavel Prigozhin and Mikhail Vatanin. Through the setting-up of local entities, and with the support of local governments, the Wagner Group finances and conducts its operations. The Wagner Group spearheaded the attacks against the Ukrainian towns of Soledar and Bakhmut in January 2023 and it is actively participating in Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine. The Wagner Group is therefore responsible for supporting materially actions which undermine and threaten the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine.

A Russia-based unincorporated private military entity, which was established in 2014. Associated individuals: Pavel Prigozhin; Mikhail Vatanin

— EU Financial Sanctions Files (FSF), 2024-04-10

Le groupe Wagner est une entité militaire privée basée en Russie dépourvue de la personnalité juridique; il a été créé en 2014 pour succéder au Corps slave. Il est dirigé par Pavel Prigozhin et Mikhail Vatanin. Le groupe Wagner finance et mène ses opérations via la mise sur pied d’entités locales et avec le soutien des gouvernements locaux. Le groupe Wagner a été le fer de lance des attaques contre les villes ukrainiennes de Soledar et de Bakhmout en janvier 2023 et il participe activement à la guerre d’agression menée par la Russie contre l’Ukraine. Le groupe Wagner est donc responsable du soutien matériel apporté aux actions qui compromettent ou menacent l’intégrité territoriale, la souveraineté et l’indépendance de l’Ukraine.
