Телевизор в нашем бараке целыми днями с надрывом борется с НАТО. По всем программам об угрозах НАТО. Сам Путин причитает, что НАТО у нашего порога и отступать нам некуда. https://t.co/w3lVDeRGkS

1/12 The TV set in our barrack hysterically fights NATO all day long. On every channel, they talk about NATO threats. Putin himself laments that NATO is at our doorstep and we have nowhere to retreat

2/12 It seems that all of Russia lives on this only and people are no longer interested in any other news.

3/12 But then the lawyer comes in and tells the news from real life. The closest oligarch to Putin and one of his wallets, Roman Abramovich, turned out to have received Portuguese citizenship. Citizenship of a NATO country.

4/12 He finally managed to find a country where you can give some bribes and make some semi-official and official payments to end up in the EU and NATO — on the other side of Putin’s front line, so to speak.

5/12 And Abramovich also made himself a present for the New Year and bought himself a new plane. A Boeing 787 worth $ 350 million. This plane was produced in a major NATO country and the money went to its economy. 10 Russian-made Sukhoi Superjets could be bought with that money.

6/12 If anyone has forgotten, Abramovich has earned the bulk of his wealth as follows: in 1997 he privatized Sibneft for $ 100 million.

7/12 In 2005, he and Putin made the deal of the century: the state (represented by Gazprom) bought Sibneft back from Abramovich, but this time, for $ 13.1 billion. Genius, right? That is, they simply took out 13 billion dollars from our pockets.

8/12 It is with this money that football clubs, real estate and airplanes are bought. The same money flows to Putin himself. In our investigation, we said that Putin's palace in Gelendzhik was partly built on Abramovich's money.

9/12 Well, there you go. "Putin's wallet" flies on an expensive plane to a NATO country. How brave of him.

10/12 And everyone is happy. Putin and Abramovich steal from the budget and invest money in the West. The West scares itself with Putin's attack on Ukraine, but gives citizenship to his trusted oligarch.

11/12 Portuguese officials carry suitcases with money. The US economy received $ 350 million. TV presenters praise Putin for his fight against NATO while foaming at the mouth. A perfect cycle of hypocrisy and corruption.

12/12 And only the sad citizen of Russia, who paid for all this, stands in the store and wonders if he has enough money to buy a bottle of vodka and three tangerines for the New Year

Встречая Дмитрия Борисовича Зимина на каких-то мероприятиях, я постоянно думал: ну и человек. Если б я не знал, что он реально есть, то подумал бы, что это выдуманный пример для подражания. Каким надо быть предпринимателю и гражданину. И биографию такую же придумали - образцовую

Занимался наукой в СССР, внес огромный вклад в развитие радиолокационных систем. Когда СССР развалился, использовал свои знания, чтобы создать первую компанию мобильной связи.

Доказал, что советский интеллигент может быть и крупнейшим предпринимателем: его «Вымпелком» - первая российская компания, разместившаяся на нью-йоркской бирже. Стал очень богатым, но деньги тратил на благотворительность и поддержку науки.

Попал в опалу, но внутренней свободе не изменил. Говорил, что хотел. Делал то, что считал правильным. Всегда верен себе, всегда полезен обществу. Да вот даже половину хороших книг, что я прочитал за последние годы, издал фонд Зимина.

И вот образца для подражания не стало. Не встретишь и руку не пожмешь. Ну, будем помнить. И стараться хоть в чем-то подражать. Семье и близким - искренние соболезнования.
