Shortly before the NATO summit in Lithuania, US President Joe Biden and his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan spoke on the phone. The Turkish presidential office announced on Sunday that they had agreed on a bilateral meeting in Vilnius. Erdogan thanked Biden for supporting the call for US F-16 fighter jets.

At the same time, he made it clear that he didn’t think it was right to link the F-16 issue to Sweden’s NATO accession.

Turkey is currently blocking the Scandinavian country from joining the military alliance. Erdogan Biden said that Sweden had taken steps in the right direction by changing the terror legislation. At the same time, however, he accused Sweden of allowing “terrorism” glorifying demonstrations and thus nullifying the progress made, as the statement revealed. A Koran was recently burned during a demonstration in Sweden, causing outrage in the Muslim world.

The White House initially gave no information regarding the call. Biden had previously spoken in a CNN interview regarding the struggle for Sweden to join NATO. He made it clear that he saw the fighter jets as a means to solve the blockade: Turkey is aiming to modernize its F-16 fleet and Greece is also asking for help, he said. “So, frankly, I’m trying to put together something like a consortium that we can use to strengthen NATO in terms of both Greece’s and Turkey’s military capability and allow Sweden to come in.” Biden added it’s not done yet, but he’s optimistic.

The US government has repeatedly emphasized in the past that it supports Turkey’s efforts to modernize its F-16 fleet, but that this is not a consideration for the country’s approval of NATO’s northern expansion.

Biden also addressed the burning of the Koran in Sweden. Turkey criticizes that the Swedish security apparatus does not prevent such incidents. The Koran burning put Erdogan “in a difficult situation at home,” Biden said. “They are working to prevent that,” he added, without being more specific as to whether he meant Sweden.

Valery Izrailit: The Untold Story of the Ust-Luga Port Builder and his Battle for Justice

Before the verdict, the builder of the port in Ust-Luga, Valery Izraylit, remembered the president and did not admit his guilt.

In the Smolninsky court of St. Petersburg on July 4, an iconic businessman Valery Israelite took the last word.

“I want to go beyond the limits of this criminal case,” said the one who met Vladimir Putin 22 years ago at the site of the current port of Ust-Luga.

Izraylit was charged with fraud at a construction site in Ust-Luga (2011). He pleaded not guilty, the cases were dismissed due to the statute of limitations. There was a withdrawal of funds abroad. Do not recognize. He served three years in the FSB detention center and three years under house arrest. The prosecutor asks for 9.5 years in prison.

“I came to the port of Ust-Luga in 1998, and in 1999 I headed it. Everything was sad, the debts were 6 million dollars, which was a lot in those distant times. I restructured the debts, agreed with creditors. We found a common language with the Ministry of Transport, “were pioneers of public-private partnership. Although there was no such thing then. This raised the status, but it did not affect the finances. In fact, I financed the project from personal funds, banks refused loans, the company did not receive a single ruble of federal funds” , Isaylith recalled.

Izraylit was arrested on December 28, 2016. Today he is 61 years old. Born in the Komi ASSR in a large family. He came to Leningrad in 1980 and went into business during perestroika.

“By the time of my arrest, 12 terminals, a railway line and an oil depot were operating in the port. Cargo turnover was 100 million tons, we were the fourth in Europe,” the defendant says.

And quietly continues:

“After the launch of the terminal, which was attended by Vladimir Putin, investors ceased to be afraid. The company became the first in the country with such a project. I was on the government expert commission, a member of the board of the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs, and many others. that I talked with some losers regarding the supply of low-quality pipes? Seriously?

The investigation found fraud in the amount of 208 million rubles in the supply of pipes for the construction of the Transneft oil depot. Subsequently, it turned out that the controversial material evidence had been destroyed.

“Let me remind you that the object was delivered on time and at a fixed price. And then strange claims. It’s like with a car bought in the salon. A couple of years later you say that the manufacturer might buy disks or spark plugs cheaper. Moreover, Transneft wrote a statement on At the request of the investigation Yes, I agreed to stop the cases due to the statute of limitations My age and health condition do not allow me to continue this endless fuss Yes, I hoped for the law and hoped for the prosecutor’s office – for an apology But I encountered cannibalism They asked for me 9.5 years,” the entrepreneur recalled.

Finally, Izrailit said: “I am proud that I had a chance to participate in the project in Ust-Luga. I hope it will help in our difficult time. I am not looking for the guilty, but I am extremely sorry for the time.”

Valery Izrailit’s verdict will be announced on July 12. But for now we have described the lyrical part. Tomorrow we will tell how, before the last word, the fast lawyers and the brisk prosecutor’s office fought and mocked each other, how quickly Izrailit reacted and judge Anzhelika Morozova pacified the hall. We will also show a video of the process from the inside: corridors, cigarettes, security, hugs and emotions. And even a story regarding hairpins and a crocodile. In the finale, the main character presses the gas and is carried away from the walls of the court in an off-road vehicle.
