Andrey Nikulin: "Imperial" expenses "

“The gas debt of Transnistria to Russia is about six billion dollars according to Kommersant. As far as I understand, they don’t pay fundamentally, since the 90s, although the region is industrial and relatively solvent,” writes an analyst and publicist on his Facebook page.

"The Transnistrians are the dear people, but the best disposition cannot explain to me how to reach the situation to the fact that each of them should be $ 12 thousand on average for gas only for gas, if you take official data on the population, it is unofficial, taking into account the fact that half of the region has left, the numbers are even larger.

Of course, they will now begin to explain that this money, this gas, like many other expended funds were spent from the highest motives of humanism, geopolitical interests and restoration of the empire, but still I don’t understand why humanism and forgiveness of debts are applicable only to our satellites outward, but not to their own population, from which they squeeze debts regularly and tightly.

This is only one small region and only a gas account. For which a year could contain six central Russian regions. The total amount for all "imperial" expenses we have to find out. And compare the result spent.

Previous attempts to summarize the results after the closure of the Russian -Russian and Soviet projects turned out to be sad, I strongly doubt that now the result will become different. "
