This phrase describes not only what is happening in Moscow’s schools and kindergartens, but in the country as a whole. Quite a coincidence.
The latest news on this looks like this:
Prigozhin’s company, Moskovsky Shkolnik, has filed a lawsuit against me, Lyubov Sobol, who represents the parents of children affected by dysentery, Natalia Shilova, who spoke out about the unsanitary conditions at Prigozhin’s food-processing plants, and the entire ACF (Anti-Corruption Foundation).
The exact subject of the lawsuit is still unclear, but there is a 99% chance that “Putin’s chef” wants to block all reporting on how he poisoned children not only in Moscow, but across the country. ACF, and Sobol in particular (she is currently running in the election, support her), made sure that the wider public learned about the mass dysentery outbreak in Moscow kindergartens, and of course Prigozhin is furious with us beyond measure. But even without ACF, there are now excellent investigations into this crook’s food empire.
Be sure to read the article by Proekt, and watch their video about what Prigozhin is feeding children.
And once again I want to draw everyone’s attention to Sobyanin and his city administration. Prigozhin has received 139 billion rubles in government contracts. Most of that money came from the Moscow budget.
Sobyanin is doing everything possible to protect Prigozhin’s deliveries of rotten food to the city’s childcare institutions and to preserve his government contracts. Moscow media outlets are completely blocking any information on this subject. Moscow healthcare institutions are forbidden from providing any information about poisonings and dysentery; there have been cases where parents were refused medical certificates stating the diagnosis.
Why? Obviously: they’re skimming this money together.
In September there will be elections, in which we will all be fighting, among other things, against the delivery of rotten food to the tables of Moscow schools and kindergartens. Not a single vote for United Russia, Sobyanin, or Prigozhin. Sign up for Smart Voting right now.
