Exemption of Palmyra was, perhaps, the most serious of Syria and a victory over Russia banned the organization in the Russian Federation “Islamic State” (IG). questionably, that this success has made the Syrian army after the official release from Syria the main part of the Russian military group. The experts drew attention to the statement, that the military base in Tartus and Hmeymim air base in Syria continue to function.
This gives reason to assume, that it was partially withdrawn only combat aircraft, while ground forces special operations remained in Syria and even been strengthened and continued to fight on the side of government forces, notes “Our version”. 23 Martha 2016 year is indirectly confirmed by the commander of Russian forces in Syria, Colonel-General Aleksandr Dvornikov, stated, that in Syria there are Russian troops. So, General informed, that in the zone of armed conflict continue to work the Russian military advisers - “at all levels, including tactical”. Furthermore, experts suggest, in Syria today are fighting Russian private military companies.
Information about stuffing “soldiers of fortune” Russia has never officially recognized, that on its territory there are private military companies (PMC), Furthermore, under Russian law naomnichestvo - is a crime. Recently, however, appear regularly stuffing information, in Syria are fighting the whole unit "soldiers of fortune" from Russia. Confirm this information, and even more so to know the exact number is not possible: All information even about Russian soldiers, who officially fight in Syria, It has not yet been officially announced, and therefore, private military companies - it does a mystery. Nevertheless, some experts believe, that the Syrian conflict could at least attend a special group, attracted by contract, are engaged in provision of Russian troops fighting. At its core, this unit software, where civilians are occupied with combat experience or military service, who worked in Syria.
“In my opinion, private military companies need to create a Russian official, – says Alexander Khramchikhin, head of the analytical department of the Institute of Political and Military Analysis,. - But at the same time take into account the US and Western experience in a broad sense. It is necessary to advance and see the positive, and negative sides. The state is not responsible for their actions and loss, but it may happen, that PMCs still discredit the government by its actions, although formally the responsibility it bears no. So it was with American companies in Iraq. Besides, Americans have it brought to the absurd, when too many tasks assigned to private military companies, including non-military, such as logistics, and the army was never able to act autonomously”.
In Syria, the war to private military companies Wagner? According to the online edition information “Fontanka”, Syria fighting battalion with heavy infantry weapons and armored vehicles, It is known as private military companies Wagner. reported, that the PMC has been formed on the basis of “Slavic housing”, who fought in Syria as early as 2013 year. is approved, what “workers” This private military companies have been seen in eastern Ukraine, but at the end of last year, the main efforts of the conditional PMC allegedly been transferred into Syria.
It is assumed, secret that this structure has not only a clear native structure, but also a special training camp in the Krasnodar Territory. Attention is drawn to the, that private military companies Wagner, Judging by its structure, is a classic battalion tactical group, capable of carrying out serious combat missions. “Fontanka” claims, she acts independently, and as part of the Syrian army on the most difficult areas, including those involved in the battle for Palmyra. And this information gives cause to assume, that said PMC is not like other private military companies, which specialize more on the performance of specific professional tasks, than the storming of cities. Their tasks closer to the specifics of sabotage and reconnaissance groups, they try to use advanced tactics and technologies - in general, They work as professionals. In Syria, the fighters private military company, reportedly, used in direct combat.
Sources told the publication about the losses among the Russian “soldier of fortune”. PMC - a method of warfare of the future talks about private military companies in Russia occur at intervals several times a year. obviously, In the near future this issue will be resolved, not by chance last year in the State Duma discussed the draft law on the legalization of PMCs. The main argument “for” - better to send to the war of adult men of their own choice for a decent reward and with insurance, than the 18-year-old boys forced and almost free. Most experts agree, it is a way of conducting future wars. There, where the state does not want to participate in the implementation of tasks directly, it can participate by PMC, and, as the events of recent years, private military companies have become popular in hot spots around the world.
“Information about the presence of the Russian private military companies in Syria from the field of rumors, but there is indirect evidence, that point to it, – says Alexander Perendzhiev, Military Political Scientists Association expert. - Officially, some PMC functions take on private security firms, that perform a number of similar functions. Private security firms involved in humanitarian operations, for example - as an option - the protection of some facilities, eg, directly in Syria, assistance in the transportation of cargo, including humanitarian convoys. They can exercise and protection of the public authorities in Syria. Such assistance is also confidential, as a sort of bodyguard, are hired, without advertising.
In July 2014 year in the State Duma discussed the creation of private military companies. In what state is this bill today, unknown, but, obviously, Work is ongoing. My impression, that provides guidance information on the bill in the public space not to let more than, although initially all the details voiced. In my opinion, private military companies are now needed in Russia. Of course, there is a risk, that these organizations go out of control. But this makes it possible to use non-state actors in the public interest. For example, Americans used this technique, officially declare, that the state does not participate in a particular military conflict, but actually present in the form of private companies. So today is happening in Iraq and Afghanistan.
At the same time it will be saved and increase the qualification personnel reserve security forces. Reservists will be used in these private military companies. Besides, increase competition in the sphere of military security. Government agencies now have a monopoly on officers, and when there will be competition with PMC, they will have to increase the attractiveness of military service”.
Help PMC is not a Russian invention. The first private military company (Watchguard International) It was created by the British Army Colonel David Stirling in 1967 year. Today, Americans are the main supporters of the use of PMCs. AT 1999 the command of the US Army even took legal document, laying down the procedure for interaction between US troops with employees of private security and military companies in war zones. PMCs in a number of local wars, which was attended by US, played a key role. One of the most famous contemporary PMC - American Blackwater (current name - Academi). About 90% its revenues form the government orders, however, customers are individuals and, as well as oil producers and insurance companies. The company "famous" killings of civilians in Iraq, arms smuggling and other incidents, It was widely publicized in the media. AT 2007 year for a week command of the United States revoked the license of Blackwater. The occasion was a skirmish, which staged in Baghdad, the employees of this company, which resulted in killed 17 Iraqi citizens, a 18 wounded. However, the usability of these mercenaries to carry out “dirty” work forced return Blackwater license. A series of scandals has forced PMC guide only change the name on the Academi.
