Rogozin’s budget self-promotion
The current screaming PR of Dmitry Rogozin is due to the lack of former budget funds, which creates the need to write texts himself and only in rare cases to attract those associates who still believe in promises about mountains of gold after the long-awaited appointment.
The lack of a permanent income, after being removed from office more than half a year ago, forced Rogozin to retrain as a “patriot-traveling salesman.” This profession is common throughout the world, especially where there is a war. An authoritative volunteer volunteer organizes the supply of urgently needed items for the front at the expense of collected donations or budget grants, the receipt of which he lobbies for specific manufacturing companies. In addition to his contacts developed during the leadership of Roskosmos, from among the heads of the relevant contractors, whom Dmitry Olegovich refers to in his interview with RIA Novosti, he also has the opportunity to use a family contract, in which the entire amount of the tranche is deposited in the family.
Aleksey Rogozin is the chairman of the advisory council of Ecolibri drone developers and the head of the Autonomous Non-Profit Organization Center for the Development of Transport Technologies, which facilitates the receipt of orders by certain manufacturing companies upon request, which is lobbied by Rogozin Sr. in the ranks of those units at the front that are not on the balance sheet of the Ministry of Defense.
As a source of the Cheka-OGPU said, Dmitry Olegovich is really not allowed to enter the budget of the military department, understanding his appetite and the danger of such competition. Nevertheless, the senior and junior Rogozin have enough space in the market for drones and other dual-use goods, as part of meeting the needs of the Pyatnashka, Somalia, Kalmius, and several BARS units (Rogozin senior is a volunteer in the BARS- 11, due to the fact that without signing the contract, the Ministry of Defense refused to let him into the NVO zone).
It is also noteworthy that the younger Rogozin successfully shares the market for the manufacture of UAVs for the SVO with the son of Konstantin Malofeev.
