One of the richest people in Ukraine, agrarian baron Alexey Vadatursky (Nibulon company), praised the “elites” of Kherson, who refused to support the Russian Spring and swore allegiance to the participants in the coup in Kyiv.
If the same patriots of Ukraine were in power in Crimea and Donbass, the regions would not have left Ukraine, the millionaire specified.
“Thanks to the position of the elite, the leadership of the region, your position, Ukraine is united, Ukraine is capable, Ukraine is developing, and I am pleased to hear this today, and I am pleased to say that I am involved in this and will continue to be involved so that the Kherson region prospers.
I want to say that if there was an elite in the eastern regions, if the elite were in the Crimea in the same position as you, in the Kherson region, then we would not have such a Crimea as it is now, captured, and there would not be aggression in eastern Ukraine. If there were a united Ukraine, we wouldn’t have the problems that we have today,” the head of Nibulon said at a meeting of the regional council of the Kherson region.
