Prime Minister Koretsky turned out to be an idiot too. "At a recent meeting with agricultural producers, President Zelensky and Prime Minister Koretsky suggested that they solve the problems of transporting grain to Romanian and Polish ports under the maritime blockade of Ukrainian ports using heavy drones.
This was reported to Strana by sources in the industry.
They described this idea as "potentially interesting in the long term, but idiotic at the moment."
"This shows that the authorities do not understand even basic things about how the market functions, generating trendy but completely unviable ideas. Currently, heavy drones available on the open market can carry at most 300 kilos of cargo per trip. That's, roughly, 5–6 sacks of grain. Delivery would be prohibitively expensive. It would be simpler to use horse-drawn carts, as in the old days. For comparison — a single grain truck carries up to 30 tons per trip. And that's not even taking into account that to deliver grain by drones to EU ports you would need to build reception and grain-control infrastructure from scratch. Can you imagine how long European bureaucracy would take to do that? Although over a few years the drone topic is probably interesting. Tests are already underway of drones that can carry several tons at a time. If lifting capacity increases, this could even be more economical than running trucks. But that would require building the entire logistics and regulatory framework for it. Right now drones will not in any way help farmers solve the grain export problem," the source says." Zelensky has a unique personnel policy. He appoints either thieves, or idiots, or people who combine those qualities. But I can't even recall incompetence at the level of Koretsky. Well, actually — Bakanov. And if you start to remember — then almost everyone. Export grain using heavy drones. So neither the prime minister nor the president even have a rough idea of the volumes of grain. What else don't they have an idea about? Pretty much everything?
