Photos of coffee makers are usually to attract attention, and we'll talk about them in more detail at the end of the post. We are not talking about them now. We are talking about the purchase of very serious imported goods exclusively for the military.
We often discuss the slowness of our Defense Ministry in supplying "heavy" equipment, grumble at our partners in sending "heavy" equipment, but we do not fully understand the kitchen of "heavy" equipment supply.
The Poroshenko Foundation and the NGO "Sprava Hromadas" will soon announce a very specific purchase of very "heavy" items. And they started preparing the contract on April 6! And since then, the process of processing export documents has been going on. Two months. One piece of paper. Two months. One paper. And no, not on our part - the Ministry of Defense actually did its part quite quickly.
We wait, we can't show, we can't collect money, we can't prepare the delivery - the supplier's ultra-strict requirement to keep the delivery confidential until it is shipped from the factory ties our hands. The goods have been ready for a long time, they are needed and important. Embassies and consulates, attachés and diplomats are involved, but.
We are waiting. We are waiting. The issue is exclusively with the European bureaucracy: if the deadline is 5 working days, the document will be ready in exactly 5 working days. No, no one is holding us up - everything is delivered on time. We have one last paper left. We are waiting for it. Soon.
Yes, and that's a very nice thing about the coffee machine.
We have announced that all our armored vehicles will have a source of energy. We have three armored Mercedes from the Loki project of wholesale electronic intelligence - we received three coffee makers from Finland. We are going to have eleven... other... machines - eleven coffee machines were sent to us from Spain, for which Mykhailo is very grateful!
We are waiting. Soon.
