russia began to be tracked by the brands tifal, brown and raventa. true , a businessman’s interlocutor at one of the large retailers says that supplying parallel imports is not profitable now anyway, because the final price is too high, so the newspaper’s sources argue that probably brands that have begun to limit parallel imports will completely disappear from russia. but mvidi eldorado optimistically states that brands from china, turkey and eac countries are taking the place of those who have left. this includes armenia, belarus, kazakhstan, and kyrgyzstan. boris kovalchuk prematurely left the post of general director of one of the largest energy companies in russia, interrao, which he headed for the last 15 years. the media predicted this event last week. on march 15 , sergei dregval was appointed general director of interau. he joined the company a little over a month ago. and before that he was vice-governor of st. petersburg. boris kovalchuk’s new place of work

in the escalation of the conflict in ukraine, macron stated this in a long television interview. with his address to the nation, he tried to calm public opinion after his own statements about the possible sending of troops to ukraine and the absence of red lines in relations with russia. but he only brought even more fear to the french, as the figaro newspaper writes, literally all political forces in france considered that their leader was playing too hard at war. elizaveta gerson on reactions to emmanuel macron's interview. lemon newspaper compares macron to a bird, not to crowing, with a crowing dove that

turned into a hawk. under this headline , the newspaper reports that on february 21, at a reception at the elysee palace, macron, with a glass of whiskey in his hand, announced that he was going to send several guys to odessa this year. 5 days after this, the french president gathered the heads of twenty european states. to the question, will there be french military? unanimously rejected by the international community from washington to berlin, from oslo to madrid. i would like to take this opportunity to remind you to those of our officials who confuse verbiage with firmness, the best strategic ambiguity is silence. having received a hook from the right from marine le pen, macron received a hook from the left. this tuesday , the french president brought up the issue of

military assistance to ukraine for discussion and voting in the national assembly, although the majority of votes were in favor, macron had to listen to this position. a lot of unpleasant things, the head of the group of parliamentary communists, fabien roussel, proposed starting peace negotiations with russia to try to prevent a third world war. the left party, unconquered france, stated that france should not isolate itself in the nato camp, that it must fight for peace. french society did not swallow and digest macron’s words about the possibility of sending troops to ukraine like frog legs, but are still choking on them. the french are afraid that macron will call them out like that. heads, a nuclear strike, they are afraid that it will completely destroy the unity of the european union and nato. against the backdrop of negative statements about the possibility of sending troops from germany and a number of other european countries that are more adequate than estonia. french people macron is suspected of simply trying to score points for his party before the european parliament elections or to distract farmers, to distract farmers from the problems in

their garden beds with the coming war. so, in the third week after my statement. but he didn’t really explain anything, he just said that a russian victory would be an image defeat for europe, that’s what he’s worried about, that he’s the first and last macron to promise victory to ukraine, he’ll now look stupid. the price of gas, the state of our economy, the cost of grain and what followed. economic shocks, all these are the consequences of the war unleashed by russia. if russia wins this war, europe's authority will be reduced to zero. macron also tried to blame all the problems of his domestic politics on moscow, along with heaps of manure in french cities. he stated that the ukrainian counteroffensive was not going as expected, that is, not as he would like. at the same time

, he answered the main direct question about the possibility of sending troops as follows. under what specific conditions? french army soldiers will fight in ukraine when the russian army will make a decisive breakthrough at the front or when it receives the key to odessa. france will never go on the offensive, will never take the initiative in military operations in ukraine. france is a force for peace. in short, the only clear promise about sending not troops, but several guys, was made not on camera, but privately, with a glass in hand, for almost a month. back, what kind of guys are these, the french are worried, funny elena guys from the series of macron’s youth, but the president, responding to clarifying questions are up in arms, he’s worried about going to russia alone, he ’s worried even just about words, so today he’s holding another meeting with scholz and tusk, clearly inciting these guys to join his company. macron is even afraid to go

to kiev alone after the russian armed forces launched a high-precision missile strike on a hangar in odessa, not far from the motorcade. heads of the baltic countries, romania, czech republic. now he is going to ukraine not alone, from great britain and the netherlands. this way, in one move, you can prove the unity of the west, for kalas's wide back, if anything happens, hide. elizaveta gerson, boris halfin, natalya markevich and vladimir vapritsky. tv component. macron will discuss the ukrainian issue in berlin today at a meeting with his german and polish colleagues. any specifics are not expected from the rendezvous with tusk and scholz. european media, citing their highly placed sources, write that politicians will try to resolve the contradictions that have arisen around the conflict in ukraine and demonstrate european unity within the framework of the weimar triangle.
