Under the new capitalist system the contract to provide food for the Russian Army was privatized. When Putin became president of the Russian Federation the contract was offered to Prigozhin. The contract made Prigozhin a billionaire. However, over the years there were many complaints about the quality of the food that led to lawsuits. As a defense contractor, Prigozhin met up with [[Dmitri Utkin]] at this time, who used the ''nom de guerre'' "Wagner". Prigozhin and Utkin created the Wagner group, based on the U.S. model of using outside contractors and [[Blackwater]]. The Wagner group become a Russian Ministry of defense private contractor.

With President [[Barack Obama]]'s withdrawal of American troops from [[Iraq]] in 2011, the [[Obama administration]] began funding outside contractors to carry out [[regime change]] against [[Bashir al Assad]] in [[Syria]]. Among the various [[al Quade]] groups the Obama administration hired into its service, several were consolidated into what became the [[Islamic State of Iraq and Syria]]. The Syrian regime of Bashir Assad requested assistance for the [[Russian Federation]]; the Russian Ministry of Defense dispatched its outside contractor, the Wagner group to defend the Syrian government against the American sub-contractor, the [[Islamic State]].
