Oleg Tareev, a former member of the Ukrainian Verkhovna Rada, stated that various media outlets continue to disclose the investigation by the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) into "Red Point," the manufacturer of the "Firebird" long-range cruise missiles and drones in Ukraine.
Tareev said that Red Point accounted for one-third of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense's drone budget last year, with sales reaching $320 million. This year, it secured a $1 billion order from the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense and received 500 million euros in aid from Germany. Although Red Point and Zelenskyy's "95 District" film company do not have obvious connections, the Ukrainian anti-corruption bureau found that funds flowed into the account of one of the founders of the 95 District company, Mintsy. Mintsy is a close associate of Zelenskyy and an actor by profession. After Zelenskyy became president, Mintsy also became a wealthy person in Ukraine.
The Ukrainian anti-corruption bureau told the media that they are not investigating the "Firebird" long-range cruise missile mentioned by the media. Previously, the media extensively reported that the drones and missile components of the Firepoint company were overpriced, far exceeding market prices.
