Russia and Its Ruling Mafia

Below we publish just a few known facts that came out in the Russian press after Deputy S. Baburin exposed them in the Russian State Duma.

In 1994-1995, 786 tonnes of gold was shipped out of Russia and into the banks in Britain, Latin America, Australia and Romania. The present Russian rulers are afraid to shine a light on those who shipped out the gold. They are now high ranking criminals and most of them hold important government posts.

Also, 500 tonnes of weapons grade uranium, extracted from Soviet atomic warheads was sold by the present Russian regime to the US for $12 billion dollars, providing the Pentagon with this super-cheap fuel and raw materials for their growing stock pile of nuclear warheads. As the German journal "Spiegel" wrote: "The retail price for weapons grade uranium is over $60 Billion for only 1 ton. Multiply this by 500 and you get a figure of over $30 Trillion Dollars!"

But President Putin and his government do not even worry not even a bit that this robbery can be used to destroy Russia itself by US Imperialism! This uranium is a special asset to the country and it was produced by hard labour and even some health deprivation by Soviet people in order to be able to defend itself – but now, this is practically given away by these present traitors.

While we’re at exposing this latest information, why doesn’t Putin reign in his former financial backer, the present Governor of Chukotka, Mr. Abramovich, who amongst other things somehow managed to steal and pay $500 million for the British Chelsea Football Club; $100 million for his own personal jet – a Boeing 737; plus the $370 million for his personal Yachts; $22 million for his Estate "Petersfield" in south of England; $1 million for his apartment in London; $500 thousand for his own palace in Russia near St. Petersburg- plus a $23 million castle "Chateu de la Croe" in France.

Not to be outdone by his former financial backer, the shipbuilding enterprise "Northern Wharf" in Russia is building a 27.5 meters long and 2.5 meters wide sailboat for Mr. Putin – this is equipped with the latest satellite communication equipment. The upper deck is made from the most expensive imported teak wood and it resembles the cutter "Standart" of the last Russian Czar.

Besides this, Putin has the Konstantinov Palace, which cost over $170 million of peoples money to reconstruct to the wishes of Putin. Then there are special Dachas near Moscow – plus Putin’s staff of servants and guards which number 600 people!

To top this robbery off, Mr. Putin has his own skiing area dacha "Krasnaya Polyana" and he flies into it from Sochi, Crimea on his private helicopter. The newspaper "Sovereshenno Secrtetno"- The Top Secret" wrote: "The present Russian oligarchs who are sensitive to Putin’s tastes - like Deripaska, Potanin, Yevtushenkov and Mr. Abramovich, are the ones who are building and equipping this lush mountain skiing resort. In order to delight their "president" they gave over $1,000,000,000 towards Putin’s amusement, besides other financial support etc."

It is unfortunately so true – The one that pays the fiddler calls the tune!

Meanwhile the destruction of the country goes on while Mr. Putin is being promoted by the West as the new Russian Czar!

How long will the Soviet people suffer before the ruling mafia will be thrown out and tried by the people for their crimes?
