Download Investing in Africa: Russia and the CAR
For almost a decade, the Central African Republic has seen growing investment and influence from the Russian mercenary group Wagner. It stretches from education and religion to business and military.

Produced and presented by Peter MacJob, additional production from Zigoto Tchaya Tchameni.
