The media drew attention to the sudden disappearance of Dmitry Mazepin, the head of Uralchem, from the session of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum.
The refusal of the businessman to speak at the discussion on June 4 was linked to the statement of Roman Protasevich, an oppositionist detained in Minsk.
The day before, the editor-in-chief of the Telegram channel NEXTA in a detailed interview spoke about large receipts from abroad – “several thousand euros”, which went to support the work of the channel.
According to Protasevich, recently they have one sponsor – “an oligarch from the Urals”.
The media suggested that Protasevich could talk about Uralchem.
Mazepin in August 2020 already made statements supporting the Belarusian opposition after the presidential election. The Russian businessman proposed to open a Committee of national salvation.
After the revelations of Protasevich, Mazepin suddenly withdrew from the discussion “Food multiplied by technology”. A few minutes before the start, the sign with his name was removed from the table.
Dmitry Konyaev, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Uralchem, took the place.
In an interview with “Rise”, representatives of Mazepin said that the oligarch should be expected at the plenary session on Friday with the participation of Vladimir Putin.
“Mazepin still came, but flew like a bullet, so as not to answer questions from journalists, “wrote later in the Telegram channel “BY THE WAY”.
