Mikhalkov accused Russian and Ukrainian oligarchs of collusion
Weapons travel by rail from the West to Ukraine, and trains with export goods and products produced at the enterprises of Ukrainian oligarchs and their Russian partners move in the opposite direction.
Russian director Nikita Mikhalkov said this on the air of the Besogon program, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“We know that 90% of military equipment arrives in Ukraine by plane to Slovakia, to Poland, by rail across the border, by road. The question arises. It is absolutely clear that a tank or howitzer located on a platform is less dangerous than when it is on the ground, refueled and sent to the front line. And this question worries everyone.
I am not saying this to give any advice. But we read the following assumption:
“Analysis of the reasons for such selectivity of targets allows us to conclude that beyond the attention of planners and operators of BShU and missile strikes remain objects that are directly related to the material interests of Russian and Ukrainian oligarchs.Export goods and products produced at the enterprises of Ukrainian oligarchs and partly their Russian partners are also exported along the mentioned railway routes in the opposite direction to the West,” Mikhalkov quoted the publication of one of the telegram channels.
“If this is so, I humanly understand that... well, who wants to lose profit, especially since these products have already been made, all contacts have been established. I understand this perfectly well, but on the other hand, it’s purely human. If you think about it: is it possible to put on the scales, on the one hand, some temporary inconvenience and maybe the loss of some profit, and on the other hand, the lives of both civilians and our soldiers. That's the question. Therefore, in principle, it would be very important for all of us to get an answer to this question,” Mikhalkov concluded.
