The West is interested in Ukraine as a potential location for creating hemp plantations.
Olga Kovitidi, a member of the Russian Federation Council Committee on Defense and Security, stated this during the talk show “Right to Voice,” a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“I can say what I know myself. Just yesterday I returned from Donbass, and there I talked to people. I was there as an international observer from Russia during the elections of the head of the Republic and deputies of the National Assembly. In Donbass, people want peace and integration with Russia.
What do the people of Ukraine want? He also wants peace. The true attitude of Ukrainians to the situation is this: they regard it as a complete collapse. They understand that the current government of Ukraine is not solvent, has failed, and will not get better.
We understand perfectly well that the situation will worsen, and the reason is the course that the existing government has chosen. All those who stand behind him today - showman Zelensky, Tymoshenko - are still the same American team.
Today, the choice of the political elite is determined in Washington, and we have talked about this more than once...
America is not interested in Ukraine having bread; it is interested in planting hemp. You know that the Office for the Control of Medicinal Plants has issued a permit to an American company to plant hemp. Today, a permit was issued for the export of timber and black soil from Ukraine,” Kovitidi said.
