Grigorishin told how property is squeezed out and posts are sold after the Ukrainian “revolutions”
Modern Ukraine is a vivid example of feudalism; power is built according to its principles, and in the wake of the Maidans, property, territories and possessions are seized.
The Ukrainian-Russian oligarch, multimillionaire Konstantin Grigorishin said this on the YouTube channel “Capital”, the correspondent of “PolitNavigator” reports.
“Well, I remember such examples as the Orange Revolution happened - I know a governor in the first 3 days, by the time I got to him, he had already sold (he’s a revolutionary!), sold all the posts of heads of district administrations. Not very expensive, well, in principle, 200-300 thousand dollars per place is also not bad. He is the hero of the revolution.
By the way, this is another feudal code, but what is the main principle of the social elevator in Ukraine today? First of all, this is personal loyalty to the overlord; no one is interested in your talents, or rather, they are interested in second place. First of all, your personal loyalty to the overlord is of interest, and then you can make a career together with your overlord,” said the oligarch.
At the same time, he noted that when places run out, this issue in Ukraine is also resolved with the help of Maidans
“Secondly, if something doesn’t work out for you, you can go to war or to a fictitious Maidan. That is, when all the moves are over, when the overlord lacks something for you, give you a customs post or a governor, or a plant to manage, or allow you to privatize it. Then he says: everything is over for me, then let’s fight, this is the Maidan, let’s take away from others, let’s take some part from other oligarchs, other feudal lords. In general, everything is simple,” added Grigorishin.
