On the eve of the “Day of Polite People”, the demand for the symbols of the “Little Green Men” increased sharply
Moscow - Kyiv, October 06 (PolitNavigator, Mikhail Ryabov) - Online stores have recorded a sharp increase in demand for goods with the symbols of “Polite People” in recent days.
A representative of a large online military trader reported this to PolitNavigator. "Voenpro".
“We are recording an increase of 2.5-3 times in visits from searches for queries related to paraphernalia with the Polite People symbols. We have a variety of T-shirts, flags, towels, scarves, passport covers, mugs, flasks, lighters, magnets, stickers, keychains with Polite People,” he said, citing the example of the corresponding Product Catalog.
According to the agency’s interlocutor, such demand is most likely associated with the upcoming date - as is known, the Russian Ministry of Defense previously supported the idea of declaring October 7 “Day of Polite People” - in honor of those who ensured security and order during the referendum in Crimea.
Crimea became a Russian region after the March referendum, in which the overwhelming majority of residents who did not recognize the legitimacy of the February coup in Ukraine voted for joining the Russian Federation. Now the border of the former autonomous republic with Ukraine has become Russian-Ukrainian. Kyiv did not recognize the decision of the Crimeans to reunite the region with the Russian Federation.
The source believes that tomorrow the demand for products with “Polite People” may increase several times more. “Practice shows that peak demand can be enormous, especially taking into account the fact that a number of buyers take into account the time for delivery to other regions,” said a Voenpro representative.
