Yuriy Biriukov, ambassador of the NGO "Sprava Hromadas", on math:
I don't like "volunteer math" and I'll show you why.
We found almost 300 army trucks in the UK. We are talking about DAF Leyland trucks, which you have already seen on my posts. We have signed a contract for 242 vehicles, gradually raising money for them, buying them in parts and bringing them to Ukraine. The average cost of a car is about 11,000 pounds. Now we multiply one by another and get more than a hundred million hryvnias, half of which must be paid to us, and the other half will be paid by Petro Poroshenko.
Do you already understand "volunteer math"?
But the problem is even worse. Delivery from the UK, ongoing repairs and equipment, a new tent and body boards. All of this is necessary to provide our military with a vehicle in good condition. On average, each vehicle costs about 95 thousand hryvnias. Do we multiply it?
So is "volunteer math" starting to get annoying?
And now the tires. Ten years in storage, and the tires are still "living". The wheels have already burst twice on the move, and so far it has been during the drive from Lviv to Kyiv. No accidents, but... what if in the field? What if during a battle?
We need to buy almost 1000 tires. It's a figure that annoys me, but it's necessary. The average price of a new truck tire is almost 12 thousand hryvnias. We have found and booked everything we can find in Ukraine. What is missing is being ordered now. And we need another 10,000,000 hryvnias for all this, which means we need to raise half and the other half... yes, Poroshenko again.
At this point, the "volunteer math" is already frankly annoying.
The photo shows 80 tires for which we paid UAH 952,320. These are 16 trucks that will have new tires. З...
Can I stop talking about my emotions about "volunteer math"? Can I just say that we can't do it without you?
