Descriptions

Valery Zakharov, ancien membre du Service fédéral de sécurité de la Fédération de Russie (FSB), est l'ancien conseiller pour la sécurité auprès du président de la République centrafricaine (RCA). Il est un personnage clé de la structure de commandement du groupe Wagner et maintient des liens étroits avec les autorités russes. Compte tenu de la position influente qu'il a exercée en RCA et de son rôle de premier plan au sein du groupe Wagner, Valery Zakharov est responsable de graves atteintes aux droits de l'homme commises par le groupe Wagner en RCA, dont des exécutions et assassinats extrajudiciaires, sommaires ou arbitraires. Cela inclut l'assassinat de trois journalistes russes en 2018, dont la sécurité relevait de la responsabilité de Valery Zakharov.
