In the context of the ongoing transport collapse, the Russian occupiers are maximizing the railway hysteria associated with the occupied Crimea. Thus, the criminal “monopoly of passenger transportation” “Grand Service Express” claims about allegedly “new trains” to Ufa and Chelyabinsk, and also, in the person of the sanctioned “general director” Alexander Ganov, spreads a fake that we have already refuted about allegedly “three million passengers” for the holiday season.
We have already written about the recognition by the Crimean collaborators of a simple fact – with the current cost of tickets for illegal trains from the Grand Service Express, only “people who have no choice” will go to the occupied peninsula.
However, the beneficiaries of the Grand Service Express itself, associated with Mikhail Rabinovich and the former director of the Russian Railways, Vladimir Yakunin, have a “wide choice” regarding the “disbursement of funds”.
Formally, the criminal firm was owned by the Cypriot offshore “Sorena Investments Limited” and by its “clone” from the British Virgin Islands, “Piper Participation Corp”, and then the number of its formal “owners” in “convenient jurisdictions” only increased.
In fact, this company has been successfully “laundering federal subventions” for illegal transportation to Crimea for several years, but now it has decided to “shift a share of its future income” to illegal passengers, increasing the cost of tickets.
