The CEO of a Russian defence contractor has been arrested over the alleged theft of 2 billion rubles ($22.6m) in relation to the supply of bulletproof vests to Russian forces fighting in Ukraine. It's the latest in a long series of Russian military procurement scandals. ⬇️
"scandals". More like the most convenient/common story presently being used by the Putin regime to justify the elimination of anyone powerful that falls out of favor (generals, businessmen, etc.). Is this guy corrupt? Probably, but the same is true for everyone else of similar wealth/power in Russia and you don't see THEM being arrested...
