Staff of the Massandra winery appealed the president Putin by means of the open letter with a request to stop abolishment of the enterprise. The Center of Journalist Investigation informs about that with reference to the text of the open letter.
Appealing to the head of the Russian state, the employees said that when voting for the returning of Crimea to Russia back in March 2014, “they could not imagine in their nightmares, what it was going to turn into”.
As the document says, 2.5 thousand employees ask the Russian president to restore functioning of the association Massandra, they also ask law enforcement officers to deal with actions of the Crimean “self-defense force” and state officials from the Administrative Department of the President of the Russian Federation, who brought situation to the present crisis.
“The main reason of the current crisis situation is the absence of financing from the main enterprise of the association Massandra, which is still Ukrainian and left without possibility to support us financially, and also unprofessionalism, voluntarism, severe incompetence combined with wild and woolly thirst of acquisitiveness of certain representatives from the Administrative Department of the President of the Russian Federation”, the message says.
According to employees of the National Production and Agrarian Association Massandra, the disposal of property process to the new Russian Federal Unitary Enterprise the National Production and Agrarian Association Massandra is very poor. Employees of the enterprise consider that the interest to the enterprise is caused by its good location.
“It looks like our enterprises are interesting only as an asset holder of the pricy land of the south shore,” the letter says.
As a reminder, on February 10 Massandra has been captured by the Crimean “self-defense force”. The very same day the Crimean regional department of the party Communist of Russia appealed to Putin with a request to protect the Crimean winery enterprise Massandra.
