Igor Volobuev, volume manager of Gazprombank, who had previously left Russia for Ukraine and joined the ranks of the territorial defense in Kyiv, gave an interview to The Insider and Liga. net.

He said that he lives "

Volobuev worked for six years at Gazprombank as a PR specialist, and for 16 years he was the head of the press service of Gazprom. After the start of the war between Russia and Ukraine, he packed his things and left Moscow on March 2.

Volobuev is from Akhtyrka, Sumy region of Ukraine, where he lived for 18 years, after which he moved to Russia.. He said that his father spent a month in a cold basement, and in Russia, since the beginning of the war, his friends asked him not to say that he was Ukrainian.

According to him, he came to defend his homeland with weapons in his hands, although he has no military combat experience, behind the military department of the institute.

Top manager says there was no threat to his life, but the suicide of other top managers casts doubt. He believes that the suicide of the first vice-president of Gazprombank, Vladislav Avaev, was staged, as was the suicide of the top manager of Novatek, Sergei Protoseni.

Volobuev suggests that Putin is personally in charge of Gazprom, and admits that he participated in the gas wars.

“Ukraine, as a reliable gas supplier, was discredited in the eyes of European consumers in order to deprive it of the status of a transit state,” said a former vice president of the company. According to him, the volume of Russian gas transit through Ukraine has fallen from 104 billion cubic meters to 41 billion since 2011..
