Quick journalist told about the Arctic Sea

Mikhail Voitenko, editor of the website "Marine Gazette: What's my interest in this story, and that was not interested, and have no interest in budetMoy interest, my resentment of this history runs counter to the interest, as I understand, the majority of the public, except those engaged in the industry, and there are many pulls on the unhealthy. What I call unhealthy? The general epidemic of divination: that there was much luck, to whom it rose across the throat, who was behind the movement? .. That just makes me completely, gentlemen, not interested. Just this I have not seen and do not see any problems or reasons for any speculation and sensationalism. Carry all those who can. Sell everything, than you can. Many of the transport of this kind, questionable deliveries in dubious countries, carried out secretly. Stress: secretly, and not illegally. In principle, this is just biznes.V case of the Arctic Sea, seems to me, everything happened with Russia's raid outrages and toshnilovki. However, if I now someone will throw on the table file with documents - who, how and for how much - or throw email immediately throw or blot. Believe it or not, but I do not care who it is that it drove. How and to whom sold. Well, we know that this was a particularly privileged gentlemen, A and B, but so what? We are surprised? If gentlemen, A and B cease to trade so as dotorgovalis, then immediately appear in C and D, and the difference between them - in height, weight, complexion and a tie. In all other respects they are twins. Moreover, I do not particularly sort out who is who up there and even know by name a dozen persons, not more. I somehow united, sturdy chelovechisch I have not watching, so why wasting memory strain? I am in this story are interested in and disturb other aspects. They are, in fact, all dva.Pervy - attitude to people, as seamen, and to the type sudovladeltsuSudno released. Instead of changing the crew - total - and the immediate delivery of his home, in Arkhangelsk, 11 people being taken to Moscow, the four left the ship. 11 people are sitting in Moscow knows where, for some unknown reason (although, of course, you can guess), without regard to family, the position of the devil knows whom. The four remaining on the vessel is a ship navigation and lead to nowhere, it is unknown in what conditions, and without regard to rodnymi.Eto how to understand? Are they what the serfs? Here on the horizon, stand the dark "state interests" - actually, nothing is all that and not explain. Once sounded "public interest" - means all fell in the mud and sacrificially froze. The interests of these same, they are above all. First, whose interests it. Secondly, and most importantly - the public interest by and large one, it is we, the state, citizens. Our life, honor, freedom and prosperity. No other interests of the state, in my opinion, can not be. If it turns out that the state has more important interests, it is no longer a state. This is some kind of despotism, or simply bardak.Lyudi most important thing! They should be treated exactly as people, as a leading wealth. Not as a crew Arctic Sea.Povtoryayu what I wrote earlier: I do not understand what is happening. That Russia has, and tore the ship from the clutches of someone else. It seems to be - to return the ship owner, and all. No, the situation changes in the opposite. One thing - the state releases the ship, somebody captured, and another - which it was, the ship, without explanation (well, except, as do the alleged need for any investigation) holds. And the vessel under a foreign flag and owned by foreign shipowners, carrying cargo and foreign nationals. And on board are four crew members on the situation of unknowns. Do not be surprised if they still had no connection with rodstvennikami.Znaete, it is surprising to me like the situation when the Arctic Sea in the claws pohititeley.Vtoroy aspect - of the state, RossiiSami action. From the searches to the statements in the media and further. This situation can be imagined as a kind of combat training, to verify the readiness of all state services to conduct contingency operations. That let them, these actions, and supervision. Especially since I have just lived through the story of the "Faina". So, after 10 days after the seizure of the vessel Ukrainian authorities realized that we must intervene. Contacted me, offered cooperation. Stating that the demand anything from me will not, and I am entitled to write as I saw fit. Affirming that the most important thing for them to pull people. Well, as you know, people pulled out. And nobody nowhere "delivered" immediately upon arrival in Mombasa with a crew of honor and pomp brought to Kiev and then grew weak on domam.Kak in the case of Artcic Sea, I was not interested in the cargo, or what they were, in the stories I was quite not interested in where the tanks were intended to board the Faina, in the Sudan or Kenya. Simply because for the most important thing, the release of the crew, this was not relevant. At the same time around "Faina" was a terrible howling - in the history of trying to climb all and sundry. The Ukrainian authorities were silent and did their work. Result izvesten.Chto in the case of the Arctic Sea? I got the impression that Russia's government ran after him for the events, trying to run something to invent. We felt the lack of unified command or staff, call it what you want. One agency says one. Just a couple of hours another department said protivopolozhnoe.Obraschayus directly across the Sea Bulletin "to the authorities. In principle, there is general interest, let's cooperate. Dead silence. Explain it to two reasons. First: the general mess in the operation. Second: who am I? Boyarskoe sort of: where, serf, are you going? "Go ahead. Suddenly taken and released at the scene of my favorite envoy. He manages to tell a story incredibly skosobochennym language such that even the profane and credulity becomes clear: there is something unclean. He manages to say nothing. His task - to read the Constitution. But even in contingency situations can be a bit of professionalism? First version. Total single version, albeit crude and unhewn, but it should be. Secondly, the basic advice from experts, so as not to cut rumor nekompetentnostyu.No is a story seems to still come to an end. Although the vessel is still in the Canaries - when it still dotaschat to Malta. But hopefully, the major misadventures behind, four wintering on the ship finally returned home, but the owner would get back their property. I have a question or suggestion for consideration, to obschestvennosti.Chto more important for you in this story? The shipment? Or was it, how to deal with the crew and the shipowner and how razrulivali history? What's more important to you? "Given the fact that each of you at any moment may be in something like that. In view of how the government acted in this situation. Are they ready for other abnormal situations. Cart is flying down the hill, the horses have suffered, and who are all able to stop, have not the slightest ponyatiya.O my begstvePovtoryayu was my call-alert. But if he just call and nothing more, in place would, of course, not moved. This was so, the last straw. Just all around said: "Misha, oh, look, oh, dogavkaeshsya. Voltage around growing. Plus, my general understanding of the situation: I was there someone angry, someone very angry, and who may, on the contrary, pleased? How do I know? And now, the result - I sit in Bangkok. And - I write about openly and freely. Here it is, above all else. But still, still ... my main goal was and remains - to the Sea Bulletin, to keep news navigation. Doing everything possible to help Russia and Russian-speaking Shipping. To shake the foundations - it is not mine, uninteresting, and useless, shed and so on incense breathes. I hope, be able to survive and get back on its feet. And the scandals already hvatit.Vot learned only that: as if in Hong Kong were arrested, six of Russia's courts and has exhibited for debt sale. If anyone knows, soobschite.PS The editors of Novaya Gazeta suggested Michael Vojtenko become of our own newspapers in the Asia-Pacific region. Voitenko soglacilsya with our offer.
