International companies have built a scheme to work with Russia/Collage 24 Channel

To continue working with Russia, international companies have built a whole scheme. First of all, a large company opens a small branch, and the person who is its director or owner is supposedly not connected with the company.

It is through this person trade occurs. This is 24 Channel was told by OSINT agency Molfar analyst Pavel Fiyalkovsky.

“In fact, the scheme is as old as world. A large company opens some kind of micro branch. It is advisable that the person who will be its director, manager or owner is not affiliated with this company and trade occurs through it,” he explained. We need to pay attention to smaller companies

International companies continue to trade with and buy from Russia oil. Pavel Fijalkowski noted that not all Russian oil companies or the smaller companies that are under them are under sanctions. This is used by companies that purchase oil from the aggressor country.

For example, Gazprom is under sanctions. There are several companies that he owns and trade through them. Therefore, as long as no one pays attention to these smaller companies, this scheme will continue to exist.

Therefore, as long as these companies have the opportunity to create for themselves smaller companies and trade through them, until they pay attention to these schemes and the mechanisms for blocking them, until then this scheme will exist, the analyst emphasized.
