I'm not sure Ukrainian authorities know what money laundering is if they think a commodity business could be doing money laundering.

    I don't think you know how nicotine/tobacco products are used for money laundering. Just Google it.

    You seem hell bent on trying to prove these are pointless raids. Maybe they are, but your arguments are just bad.
