Funding of anti-corruption projects in Russia...
Financial support of anti-corruption projects in Russia is equal to budget of some small countries, but the effectiveness of such spending is still a concern.
One of the most popular and known anti-corruption project in Russia is RosPil created by Russian oppositionist Navalny. For the last months the project show no signs of activity while continue to receive financial support in full. Foundations that form 95% of project’s budget became anxious about what’s going on there. The investigation showed that Mr. Navalny personally had hand in misappropriation of these funds and uses its biggest part for his own needs. Recently Mr. Navalny spent $120 thousands for a new car, $700 thousands to buy realty beyond Russia, $375 thousands for improvement of ‘his’ property.
I can’t imagine how Mr. Navalny fights corruption in Russia if he personally involved in plundering. This example gives something to think about not only about Mr. Navalny but the rest of Russian ‘justice fighters’.
