Have you all already seen the news about changing the reservation criteria so that even defense and energy sectors will lose the right to 100% reservation?
But the main point of this news is not even the revision of the limits.
The key issue is depriving the Korabletskyi Cabinet of the ability to determine enterprises' critical status and directly transferring this matter to the security forces.
From representatives of the SBU, GUR, SZR and the National Police a new depersonalized superstructure is being created in the form of a coordination headquarters.
This headquarters will not directly grant critical status but will only issue recommendations — “give” or “don’t give” — without which a company will not be able to obtain that status.
On what basis such recommendations will be made is still unknown. But who will argue?
Well, like: “Give me a certificate that I need a certificate…”
…The creation of this coordination headquarters on reservation issues will in practice mean that a defense or any other business’s access to the matter of criticality and employee reservation will occur exclusively through arrangements with the security forces.
The government and local self-government bodies are becoming merely formal executors of the coordination headquarters’ decisions.
What prospects this opens up for abuse, manipulation, and corruption — imagine for yourself.
For example, you could strip the critical status from a disloyal drone manufacturer or a transformer supplier.
Or vice versa. Give something to your people. The “grid” will quickly lay it out.
But there is also some good news.
Under the chairmanship of Rustem Umerov, SZR is indeed starting to gain weight and is rapidly entering the pool of members of the coordination headquarters.
