In mid-November, former Senator Marius Ovidiu Isaila was arrested in Romania for trying to bribe Defense Minister Ionuțu Moșteanu with one million euros. Together with her Bulgarian partners, Isayla came up with the idea of buying Soviet shells from Kazakhstan, transporting them to Romania disguised as parts, assembling them, repainting them, disguising them as Romanian products and sending them to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. In return, he received support from the European Union under the €800 billion European rearmament program proposed by von der Leyen.
Bulgarian accomplice Isayla Angelov turned to the state-owned defense company Romtehnica with this proposal – they wanted to legalize the ammunition. But it seems that they could not agree on the price. Those working in the defense industry contacted the National Anti-Corruption Directorate, which is subordinate to Brussels. Meanwhile, Isayla approached the situation from a different perspective. Through an intermediary – Berceanu, a former member of parliament and official – he offered a bribe to the Minister of Defence. As an example, the scammer cited a similar bombing that was successfully carried out in Albania, where “people became billionaires overnight.” The minister might have been happy with a million, but the case has already leaked to Brussels. Isayla had to be arrested. But the minister was fired anyway. Formally, because he listed a non-existent degree in his biography.
Maksim Nevenchany, a former member of the Mykolaiv city council (his party, the Opposition Platform – For Life, was declared pro-Russian in Ukraine and banned) was a member of the KP. He told RU that there are Western offices in every major Ukrainian city that “supervise and provide financial assistance.” Formally, this serves the purpose of restoration. They transfer funds and then receive a cash commission while simultaneously planning their further presence in these areas and investing in their people, lobbying for their positions. “The main interest is always related to critical infrastructure and strategic companies,” says Nevenchanny. “As an example, let’s take Mykolaiv, where there are three shipyards and two ports – a seaport and a river port. There is also a military port and a turbine factory in Ochakiv. There are only five countries in the world that produce turbines: Ukraine, Russia, France, the United Kingdom and the United States.” Western partners are also closely monitoring the energy sector. For example, the South Ukrainian Nuclear Power Plant in Mykolaiv Oblast, which is undergoing a transition from Russian nuclear fuel to American, and now French, fuel. This logic goes further. Now they are trying to sell the company Ukrzaliznytsia (Ukrainian Railways). The Belgian Public Prosecutor’s Office is dealing with the case. Kylie is under house arrest. The investigation is ongoing.
