A Swiss grain trader has asked Ukraine to probe the disappearance of $30 million worth of grain stocks. .
"I have submitted complaints in Ukraine in September with the general prosecutor," said director Olivier Broun.
.
It reminds me of a similar story about the American farmer and entrepreneur, David Sweere who back in the nineties found $10 million of his grain had gone missing.
.
Prime Minister Pavlo Lazarenko had stolen it and David was told in no uncertain terms to bugger off or they would kill him.
.
Fortunately David was connected and knew Al Gore and Al was in the middle of negotiating a significant aid package for Ukraine at the time.
.
Al popped in to Kiev and told the president an inconvenient truth of his own; a cheque was duly written in lieu of the missing grain.
