The organization "Association of carriers of Russia", opposing the introduction of a fee for truckers through the Plato system, was included in the register of so -called "foreign agents" on Friday. This was reported on the website of the Russian Ministry of Justice.
The department argues that "the fact of compliance with the organization of the signs of a non -profit organization performing the functions of a foreign agent" is established by a certain unscheduled audit. No other details in the Ministry of Justice were specified.
The association of carriers of Russia arose simultaneously with the beginning of the All -Russian protest against the Plato system in November 2015. It unites entrepreneurs and drivers from 43 regions of the country.
A private company is engaged in the collection of money, the co -owner of which is Igor Rotenberg
Drivers also expressed indignation at the fact that a private company is engaged in the collection of money, which is the co -owner of which is Igor Rotenberg, the son of Arkady Rotenberg, a large entrepreneur from the neighboring circle of President Vladimir Putin.
Siberian truckers fully supported all protests against the Plato system, including the last action in the spring of 2017, when truckers stopped transportation for a month and a half.
Natalya Huseynova from Novosibirsk has been engaged in cargo transportation for 11 years. Previously, she went behind the wheel of a truck, now she heads the transport company. He considers himself a Siberian coordinator of the association of carriers.
Fines from 150 to 700 thousand per "Plato" - it is not clear where and for what
“The business is now in such a tough situation that it is already difficult to call it a business,” Natalya is convinced. - Our income and profitable are incommensurable with expenses. You work, and you yourself also have to. The diesel fuel rises, the prices for transportation - no. Fines from 150 to 700 thousand per "Plato" is not clear where, for what and for what. And on what basis are 13 constitution points violated? And why should we some private trader, legal entity or individual, pay money to the whole country? They do not go to the treasury! "Plato", excise taxes on fuel, transport tax, insurance and the rest - all this is at least not logical. Value -hawk control is the same. The carrying capacity of the car that leaves the plant is 40 tons, and only 12 can be carried along Russian roads. There is no logic? They are trying to make the carriers small, small enterprises, closed up to be some single operator. This is our government to cut down more money from people. We are not ready for this. By the way, increasing the cost of transportation will lead to an increase in prices for all goods, so that all end consumers, the entire population will suffer.

According to Natalia, the bulk of the carriers are the owners of the same machine who work for themselves. And it was they who had already lost about 70 percent of their income.
“Let's count,” Natalya suggests. - Now I will open the program. Suppose we are going from Moscow to Komsomolsk-on-Amur. There is such a flight of about 300 thousand. So, “Plato” we pay 16015 rubles one way for this flight. In the opposite direction, as much. We will spend about 180 thousand on diesel fuel. Plus, 30 percent of depreciation - one wheel costs twenty, and there are six of them. So count. We leave the minus. And why do we give money? There are no roads! Okay, if they were. But these are directions, not roads! In Siberia, the catastrophic state of the coating, 15-centimeter pits in which puddles, and they are not visible!

In the summer, truckers held a rally. And now the fundraising for this action announced on the Internet has become an occasion to declare them by foreign agents. Natalia is sure: this is done to interfere with a strike planned for December.
On November 28, the inspection of the Ministry of Justice ended, and on December 1 the decision was already made. Surprisingly quickly, then someone needs it!
- We were recognized as foreign agents! On November 28, the inspection of the Ministry of Justice ended, and on December 1 the decision was already made. Surprisingly quickly, then someone needs it! All this is not just like that. On what basis? There is no reason. Why is this done? In order for our active actions that we plan in December to muffle a little - we have an all -Russian strike planned. So, we are going the right way, people will unite even more. We will dispute this decision in court. In the summer, we held a car racing from Vladivostok himself, conducted reports, we have shooting. They wanted people to see the quality of our roads. How transporters work, how the traffic police works, how weight -power control is carried out, they even put the scales incorrectly. There are a lot of violations! We posted their details on the site, we were helped with money, according to the charter we have the right to do so. We do not know who and where he translated the donations-perhaps something came from citizens of other countries. But what are we agents?! We have never been and do not plan them. Although after that, I think, you can accept money from everywhere.
Alexander Nikolaevich Chernykh , Irkutsk, chairman of the Privo trade union organization. The public organization was created to combat the Plato system. In the spring of 2017, its activists carried out a strike in protest against ravor from truckers.

The recognition of the “foreign agent” “Association of carriers of Russia”, I think, enables the authorities to more closely monitor the participants of the ODR. The political activity of the organization is that they find allies. People advocate the fight against the collection of fares. And this follows such a political technique.
Andrei Bazhutin, the leader of the ODR, we support. In fact, you can blame anyone
And we support the "Association of Carriers of Russia", which was registered at the end of April 2016. We conducted a strike on the behalf of our defense systems, and we support Andrei Bazhutin, the leader of the ODR. In fact, you can blame anyone ... our organization has more than four hundred people who are against the Plato system. We are not satisfied with this approach. We are trying to somehow show the President and the State Duma that "let's do more and more fairly." "Justice" is a code word for our people. Basically, the question is about this.
The last time we held a protest in early April 2017. Since then, I think life has even worsened. In addition to a constant promise, to increase this tax, in fact, nothing happens. Now there are no protests, because people should somehow earn a living. We had a strike from the end of March to May 13, in fact, a month and a half. Since in other parts, in other areas, the strike was exhausted, then we decided to turn it without abandoning our demands.

And our requirements are these: specifically in the Irkutsk region there are no other roads, and the highway is the only place of movement, therefore, how can you charge money from carriers that can only go in this place? And yet - we agree to pay the state, but not a private company of the Rotenbergs.
The trucker from Omsk Andrei Grekov has not been working for six months. After the introduction of the Plato system, this became economically unprofitable for him.
- While my car is standing. I am not ready to take risks and pay huge fines for overload. In addition, the system that measures dimensions works incorrectly. Many of my friends did the same: we work where we have to do, until the situation with the legislation in our area is normalized, ”says Andrey Grekov. - I do not understand how the hard workers like us could become foreign agents. I'm shocked. How can people who work in Russia be considered foreign agents?! This is a mistake, some kind of absurdity.
Everyone who wants to be independent and work for themselves is trying to remove from the market
Zoya Zholnerchuk from Omsk - the head of a small transport company, has been engaged in cargo transportation for more than 20 years and knows how to live drivers and small entrepreneur in this area. He says that she is engaged in this business because it is difficult to survive that she - the mother of three children - is ready to pay the state.

- We are doing everything against the "hard worker" - we all must be slaves. Everyone who wants to be independent and work for themselves is trying to remove from the market - they should work for a rich uncle. Large entrepreneurs survive us, ”says Zoya Zholnerchuk. - turned on the driver Plato and went north. It turns out that he will go from the strength twice a month and gives 50 thousand rubles for Plato for this. Transport tax is nothing compared to the fact that it is given to Plato. Now my car arrived from Novosibirsk, the costs of Plato were included in the cost of transportation. For this flight, I was paid 30 thousand rubles, of which 15 thousand went to diesel fuel, 6 thousand - salary to the driver. The rest was supposed to be a profit, but we had a spring broke, and 23 thousand rubles took to repair. As a result, we did not earn anything. If at such expenses to pay fines, then the state can give not only profit, but also all savings.
We asked to comment on the inclusion of "association of Russian carriers" in the register of the so -called "foreign agents" of the chairman of the association Andrei Bazhutin.
- Our attitude to this political circus remains the same. We are not foreign agents, we do not have foreign financing, ”says Andrei Bazhutin. - For the entire existence of the unification, one truly major donation was received from a private person at our account, 250 thousand rubles. I think it was a provocation. Our organization is not engaged in political activities. She defends the rights and freedoms of citizens.
Verification of "Association of Carriers of Russia" was carried out at the request of a citizen
According to the leader of the OPR, the verification of the "Association of Carriers of Russia" was carried out at the request of a certain citizen, and did not officially announce his decision to the Trucklers. Andrei Bazhutin himself learned about the status of a foreign agent from the interfax message.
“One of the reasons for what happened may be that I expressed the intention to participate in the presidential election,” says Andrei Bazhutin. - But we must understand: to express intention and take part are different things. It is very strange when Russian men born and living in Russia are called foreign agents. Many of them are generally not at all, the equipment is registered here, they earn here, their parents and grandfathers are buried in this earth. For all this time, we went to Germany once, met with trade unions. But we have Dmitry Anatolyevich with Vladimir Vladimirovich also regularly fly abroad ...
Andrei Bazhutin reports that truckers of all major regional centers of Siberia support the requirements and strikes of the "association of carriers of Russia".
- We clearly realized that no papers and writings will solve the issue with Plato. We act with our legislative initiatives, and we confirm them by going out into the street. The authorities are not ready to talk differently. They communicate from the standpoint of power and receive a response from us.
The trucker from Krasnoyarsk Igor Rybsky took part in all the strikes of the "Association of Truckers of Russia", is going to support new promotions:
Now we are also foreign agents, we must justify the status
- We do not earn anything. For the delivery of Krasnoyarsk - Novosibirsk, twelve thousand for twenty tons are paid. If you subtract the “Plato”, I have nothing left. But we have to work, we have loans, we have families, children, wives. We work if possible. We infringe ourselves in everything, but we work. Or they want us to go to the partisans, we can’t have a family. I participated in the strike, stood the longest. And now they will say - I will stand. The conscience will not allow me to go if everyone gets up. My wife understands me very well, she supports me. And now we are also foreign agents, we must justify the status. That's when the guys stood in Khimki in Moscow, they asked - "President, help." But it was just ignoring. It's just a shame, aren't we people? Not the inhabitants of this country? Why don't they talk to us? Why don't they want to hear us? As soon as we were not called during this period, "gray carriers", now here are "foreign agents." We are offended, and we tolerate, act with legal methods. We are not calling for anything illegal. But they don’t hear us. Faith in the government is completely lost, no one will help us. Apparently, that's why we are “foreign agents”.
