Why is Wildberries being bombed? All about its Korean owner, Kadyrov and ties to Russian army // Uncensored. VIDEO
Russia is attempting to portray strikes on Wildberries warehouses as an attack on a civilian business.
However, the marketplace openly sold UAV components, tactical radios, antennas, fibre-optic cable for FPV drones, body armour and other goods labelled "Everything for the Special Military Operation" and "Tested in the Special Military Operation".
Maryna Danyliuk-Yarmolaieva explains how Wildberries became a financial and logistics empire, what Putin, Ramzan Kadyrov and Suleiman Kerimov have to do with it, and how the struggle for control of the company ended in a shooting near the Kremlin.
She also explains why Wildberries attempted to enter the Ukrainian market specifically in 2020 and who managed to stop the Russian business expansion in time.
