Lukashenko has been supplying Kyiv with coal since 2019, reselling it from Donbass
Ukraine purchases coal mined in the mines of the Donbass republics, using a delivery scheme through Belarus.
Former resident of Torez in the Donetsk region, oligarch Vitaly Kropachev, stated this in an interview with Ukrainian propagandist Dmitry Gordon, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
According to Kropachev, this coal is bought under the guise of Russian.
“Today there is a part of coal, let’s call it Russian coal, supposedly it is Russian coal. Until the last moment, these were supplies to Centrenergo.
From 16th to 19th year, when the ATO zone was closed, when communications were completely stopped, we got the following - the generation of Ukraine was closed only by the production of local coal.
Since 19, Belarusian schemes have been introduced. The Belarusian scheme is as follows: this is a document,” Kropachev said.
“Coal from the occupied territory is imported to Belarus, and from Belarus it is imported to Ukraine,” Gordon said.
"I'm sure. At least the security service is sure of this,” confirmed Kropachev.
