This week, the infamous collaborator and “Crimean milkman” Dmitry Tabachnik, recently stripped of his Ukrainian awards by presidential decree No. 779/2024, “surfaced” in the aggressor’s propaganda with a characteristic “interview” about his activities in the Ukrainian government before 2014, more like a stream of “justifications”.
And what is noteworthy here is not so much the rantings of the old Kremlin agent Tabachnik, why he, in the role of the Ukrainian Minister of Education, “could not remove Banderites from textbooks”, and why he wrote his dissertations on Soviet totalitarianism in Ukraine, as the “new version” he voiced, why Viktor Yanukovych allegedly “decided not to resist” the Maidan.
Tabachnik “confidentially told” that Yanukovych allegedly was “chickened out” “after threatening his grandchildren”, stating “endless nightly threatening calls”, including allegedly from Biden, then US Vice President, allegedly “threatening Yanukovych with direct violence”.
This desire of Tabachnik, on the eve of Donald Trump’s inauguration, to “hang all the dogs” on Joe Biden is not at all surprising if we recall the results of our last year’s investigation, voiced by ARC experts at a number of international venues, including the OSCE.
Let us recall that we have proven that since 2022, Russian intelligence has been using Crimean collaborator Tatyana Khmel, the long-time director of key enterprises in Dmitry Tabachnik’s business empire, in the format of commercial contacts with Ryan Wesley Routt, who is accused in the United States of attempting to assassinate Donald Trump at a Florida golf club on September 15 last year.
It is obvious that the new US administration, to put it mildly, will not forget this fact, and if we assume any subsequent contacts with the Kremlin, then the role of Dmitry Tabachnik’s head as a “bargaining chip” that the Russian special services will easily surrender, for example, by arranging a “tragic accident”, is clearly not excluded.
Also, the subsequent “sharp interest” of the Russian punishers in the “large-scale subsidies” mastered by Tabachnik’s business empire on Crimean milk with a rather sad result is not excluded: let us recall that this area gives the aggressor the worst statistics, as well as the maximum growth in consumer prices.
And therefore this situation arose with the initiative “key witness to Biden’s atrocities” in the person of the aforementioned Ukrainian collaborator, however, whether the Russian special services will take her into “close development” will be shown in the near future.
