In an interview with ONT, ex-head of Nekhta, Roman Protasevich reveals a lot of “secrets” about the activities of the channel. About who stood and who coordinated protests in Belarus, who and how financed the channel. And here it pops up that in addition to Poland, Nekhta sponsored “one Russian oligarch, whom Stepan Putilo met personally.”
Protasevich intentionally does not call him a name, however, he says that this is a direct competitor of another Russian oligarch Mikhail Gutseriev.
There is no need to be seven spans in the forehead to understand that we are talking about “Uralkalia” and his head of Dmitry Mazepine.
The headquarters and production capacities of the company are located in the cities of Berezniki and Solikamsk of the Perm Territory. Uralkali is the main competitor of both Belaruskalia and Slavyal, the owner of which is Mikhail Gutsiriev.
In recent years, Guciriev spends a lot of time in Belarus. Its Slavici is implementing the largest investment project of recent decades-the construction of Nezhinsky GOK at a price of $ 2 billion. Plus, the oligarch is actively investing in Minsk: IT companies, Renaissance Hotel, Business Center, Business Aviation terminal and an elite entertainment complex. And Lukashenko calls Gutseriev “My Friend Misha.”

In addition to the fact that this story smacks of pressure on large Russian business, there is also pressure on the Kremlin, or rather personally in Putin.
The thing is that the Board of Directors “Uralkali” heads by the head of Rostec Sergey Chemezova person very close to the Russian president.
It turns out that judging by the words of Protasevich that the Russian leadership, albeit indirectly, “financed” protests in Belarus. Lukashenko seems to expect that this information will be heard in the Kremlin. You look, again something is bargaining.
