⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦🔎 Behind the Scenes - #Ukraine Digest for 9 Jan⚡️

🔹Yesterday, the deadline for submitting alternative draft laws on mobilisation to the Verkhovna Rada expired. In total, there were 5 of them, 1 governmental and 4 parallel ones. In the morning, the Rada's Defence, Security and Intelligence Committee began its meeting to determine the fate of the future law, whether to bring it to the session hall for a vote and, if so, in what form. MP Zheleznyak noted that the discussion of the government bill is far from the top of the agenda. He predicted that no decision may be made at all. The decision has been postponed until today, 10 Jan.

🔹In #Odessa, employees of military commissions are actively mastering a new method of mobilisation, raids in public transport. Odessians posted a video in social networks, as the military stopped the tram, pulled out all the men from it and pushed them into their bus. Then there was a video of military officers breaking into a trolleybus for the same purpose. The male passengers were seized and taken away, despite the active indignation of the women. So, no matter what laws on mobilisation are adopted, methods outside the laws continue to play a leading role in replenishing the AFU.

🔹In villages in #Kievshchyna, employees of military commissions have also become active. A local resident complained on social networks that they, together with district police officers, drive up to houses, enter courtyards, and even break into doors if they are not opened. According to a woman, in recent days in her village alone about 70 persons liable for military service have been taken away in this way, some of them at night.

🔹Outside the front, Ukrainians are also fighting for life and business. A military farmer appealed to Zelensky in social networks with a request to stop the sale of land. The thing is that since 1 Jan a new rule came into force, according to which individuals and legal entities can buy plots of agricultural land with an area of 10,000 hectares. Previously it was possible to buy a maximum of 100 hectares. Ukrainian small and medium farmers opposed this innovation. While many of them are drafted to the front, large fonds and banks will buy up everything. The middle class in the countryside would be completely destroyed. Of course, the authorities ignored all the demands. After all, the transnational corporations, to which the Ukrainian authorities are subordinated, are interested in this very scenario. The same Black Rock I wrote about.

🔹An MoD official, Aleksandr Kozlovsky, suspected of corruption in AFU supplies, just decided to put the stolen money into the ground. As it became known on the results of pretrial investigation, he bought up 47 land plots in #Kiev, #Khmelnitsky, #Vinnitsa, #Cherkassy, #Zhitomir and #Poltava regions. At the same time, the title to the plots was registered to his mother-in-law and father-in-law. In total, he embezzled 170 mln. hryvnias. So in addition to land he had enough for a flat in #Kiev and an expensive SUV.

🔹Defence Minister Umerov summed up several major corruption cases in his ministry, which became known recently. According to him, an internal audit of the ministry over the past 4 months revealed violations for more than 10 billion hryvnias. For the near future, the minister promised more news about detentions and criminal cases in the MoD. Of course, he promised that everything will be fair now, as new defence procurement schemes are being implemented according to #NATO standards. Weapons, ammunition, logistics equipment, fuel, food and clothing for the troops will be purchased not by the ministry, but by two special agencies. In fact, this does not look like a fight against corruption, but rather the implementation of a standard Soros scheme, whereby national corruption will be replaced by supranational corruption.
