Russian business has adopted the fashion of complying with Western sanctions against Russian citizens
Private Russian companies refuse to provide services to Russian citizens included in Western sanctions lists.
Ex-speaker of the DPR Foreign Ministry Konstantin Dolgov stated this in his blog, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
According to Dolgov, among these was Russian political scientist and former chairman of the LPR government Marat Bashirov.
“The RESO insurance company refused to purchase a car insurance policy for the famous political scientist Marat Bashirov. Do you know the reason? And the reason is that Marat is under EU sanctions. In 2014, he was in the LPR and briefly served there as chairman of the Council of Ministers. For this, Brussels slapped him with sanctions.
Details: in their database they have a note that due to sanctions they cannot issue a policy to this citizen of the Russian Federation. In the end, they did it somehow, according to some left-wing scheme, and got out of it. But the residue remained. Let me remind you, this is a private company. Although even state-owned companies are afraid to enter Crimea. What is the demand from private owners? “You are denied entry” - as if you hear the voice of a thug standing at the door of a fashionable establishment.
Another story: Moscow, Avilon car showroom on Volgogradsky Prospekt. A person subject to EU sanctions went there to make a duplicate key for a BMW. The employees made a request to Germany, but the Germans refused - on the same basis (sanctions). And at the car dealership they stupidly threw up their hands: we can’t do anything, they say.
If the state does not pay attention to such stories, the growth of social tension in society is guaranteed. More and more Russian citizens are falling under sanctions, plus they have families, loved ones, relatives, etc. The state can and should speak more harshly with representatives of the business community so that in the future there will be no such segregation of Russian citizens,” writes Dolgov.
