1/6
Victory! Thanks to our efforts, one of the most influential companies in the field of electronics, French @thalesgroup, is leaving the #Russian market!
2/6 Prehistory. When I was on the front line near #Mykolaiv, the fighters of one of the brigades showed me French Thales thermal imagers in a captured #Russian tank, which were supplied to the Russians after 2014.
Video at the link:
3/6 I also spoke at the @PACE_News, where I said that Thales-produced thermal imaging cameras were found on the captured Russians, and this means that the sanctions were bypassed
4/6 After the speech, I was approached by the representatives of 🇫🇷 and🇨🇭in @PACE_News, Nicole Triss, and @CottierDamien. They admitted that they did not even know about such a brazen violation on the part of the French giant and promised to find out
5/6 After that, we also raised companies against #Thales in other countries. For example, the news that some Welsh plants of Thales also produced products for #Russia. thenational.wales/news/20247935.…
6/6 And today the news came out that #Thales is leaving 🇷🇺. They did not want to go earlier, but under our pressure, they changed their mind. For 🇷🇺, this means the loss of military armor for tanks and the usual security mechanisms for bank cards that Thales officially provided.

The russians fled from Snake Island. What does this mean for the global economy? And why is this one of Ukraine's most important victories in the war with Russia
2/7
Why is Snake Island a strategically important object? After sinking of the flagship Moskva, Russia was left without the opportunity to cover its fleet.
The flagship Moskva was mainly equipped with air defense systems.
3/7
Therefore, Russian air defense systems were installed on Snake Island and covered the Russian fleet in the Black Sea. Whoever controls the Snake Island controls the sea route from Odessa to the Mediterranean.
Some #European companies are still helping #Russia maintain their military-industrial complex, despite the #sanctions!
Now I will tell you about it in detail!
2/10
Europe imposed sanctions against #Russia after the annexation of #Crimea and the occupation of #Donbas back in 2014. Since then, the sanctions have been extended. But several companies still managed to get around the sanctions: from #Switzerland, #France, and #Germany.
3/10 Last week I was at the positions of the Armed Forces of #Ukraine in the south of щur country, where I managed to see the captured #Russian military equipment. It turned out that there are components of European production!
