“The reconstruction of the occupied city is ‘extremely important.’ There is evidence in annual reports, on company websites, photographs and videos that German companies are also playing an important role in the reconstruction of Mariupol,” the statement said.
The investigation mentions the role of a subsidiary of Knauf, which, according to Tagesschau, operates exclusively on the Russian market and provides the project with construction materials ordered by the Russian Ministry of Defense. In addition, the participation of a company from Münsterland in North Rhine-Westphalia WKB Systems in the production of equipment for the construction of cellular concrete, which is also used in Mariupol, is being considered.
It is noted that the main shareholder of WKB Systems is businessman Viktor Budarin. The company supplies its products to his Russian company. Moreover, none of these companies are under sanctions.
The exact number of civilians killed during the assault on Mariupol has not been established. According to information about the burial, the number may exceed 10 thousand people. The city was destroyed. Currently, Russian media are actively covering the process of restoration and construction in Mariupol.
