In the last days of November, occupational propaganda began to disseminate statements by the fake “Crimean state duma deputy” Leonid Babashov that the “crimean cable plant” “Yevkabel” located in Yevpatoria will allegedly launch a line for the production of Internet cables of “5th, 6th and 7th categories”.
After that, some “independent media” began to violently imitate the “gathering of information” about this “factory”, after which they “leaked the inside” that its “founders” were supposedly the “Yevkabel” company from Tomsk and a certain “limited liability company” “Dontekhsvyaz”, allegedly “registered” in the Russia-occupied Donetsk. However, a much more complete picture emerges from open sources.
Yevpatorian “Yevkabel”, as an illegal “enterprise”, was “registered” by Russian occupiers on Vinogradnaya Street no later than 2015, and its “beneficiaries” are Anatoly Dorokhov and Irina Dorokhova. Indeed, Tomsk “Yevkabel” is recorded under the same Dorokhov, and the same Dorokhova has been listed in the Ukrainian registries since 2001 as the founder of the Donetsk company “Dontekhsvyaz”, which until 2014 was a major supplier of the relevant products.
In fact, it can be argued that Donetsk businessmen illegally “brought production to the Crimea” and opened a “twin company” in Russia to enter the markets of third countries, primarily Kazakhstan and Belarus.
At the same time, the illegal activities of Yevpatoria “Yevkabel” have been “hard to miss” since at least 2018, since this illegal “enterprise” actively produces various types of cables, has a staff of dozens of people and a “turnover” of almost 2 billion rubles, as well as operates warehouses in Russia itself. Dorokhov himself was not only mentioned in the “reports” of the Yevpatoria “administration”, but even gave “optimistic interviews” to the local “press”.
Since the fake deputy Babashov, who is close to Aksenov, has repeatedly been “noted” in “schemes” for fake “legalization of Crimean property” and for circumventing sanctions, we can expect that he will try to facilitate the illegal preservation of “Yevkabel”’s products in the markets of third countries.
It is also obvious that the activation of “Yevkabel” is directly related to the aggressor’s criminal attempts to provide the military structures and occupational “administrations” of the aggressor with telecommunications and Internet communications products. Therefore, it is worth hoping that appropriate sanctions and law enforcement steps will be taken against the “beneficiaries” of “Yevkabel”.
