From the Fringe: Russian Oligarchs Being Shaken Down To Fund Ukraine War

I have a Russian friend who just returned from a month in Russia visiting family.

100% war tax on illegal bribes:

The word on the street in Moscow is Oligarchs are being shaken down to fund the Ukraine war.  They’re given an amnesty period where they’re informed it’s known they’ve been taking bribes.  They’re told to hand over those bribes for the Russian war effort in Ukraine immediately or risk being locked up where their entire fortune will be confiscated.

These are most likely lower 2nd and 3rd level Oligarchs, as there must be a different program for first tier Oligarchs.

She said one small apartment that was raided had $23 million US dollars stacked and packed; all from bribes. Many I’ve known who traveled in Russia talk about the need to pay bribes whenever demanded from any official that can grant you a favor; like boarding your flight on time, or continuing on your way.

The number of Russian deaths in the Ukraine conflict is being reported in Russian media at 70,000. When she arrived in Russia the cash bonus to signup for the Ukraine war was the equivalent to 2,500 in US dollars; before she left the bonus had been raised to $10,000. They must have found some extra funds in the last 30 days.
