Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin is in italics.

We had a bare tweet about the raid on Thursday, expanded in a comment by Mercutio with a link to a very dense Times of India article on the subject. This Colonel Cassad piece explains more simply what happened in Bangalore, Karnataka State.
[ColonelCassad] According to The Indian Express, the raids are being conducted as part of an investigation into violations of local legislation and the fight against financial crimes.

It will be specified that Soros's organization was classified by the Indian Ministry of Home Affairs in a special category back in 2016, which restricts uncontrolled donations to local NGO projects. At the same time, law enforcement officials suspect that the Indian office of the Open Society Foundation circumvented the restrictions by bringing funds into the South Asian republic under the guise of economic investments or payment for consulting services. In fact, the money was used to finance the activities of various NGOs, which was contrary to Indian laws.

Earlier, representatives of the ruling BJP party in India said that billionaire Soros and his Open Society Foundation, which was financed by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID, whose activities were terminated and banned in the Russian Federation), were involved in interfering in the internal affairs of India.

The day before, it became known that the Indian Ministry of External Affairs had written to the US Embassy in New Delhi with a request to urgently provide detailed information on the projects implemented in the country with the support of USAID since 2015.

"In connection with the recent reports on USAID funding in India, the Ministry of External Affairs has formally written to the US Embassy with a request to urgently provide detailed information on the expenditure incurred on all projects supported by USAID in India over the last 10 years," the Indian Foreign Ministry said in response to a corresponding query by members of the Indian Parliament. "While some information is available from open sources on this issue, the Government of India, understandably, awaits a formal response from the US Government," the ministry added.

The Indian Foreign Ministry also noted that the US administration had withheld some details about the beneficiaries of USAID, citing legal provisions of the US law. As the ministry explained, this was about cases where we are talking about "information that could jeopardize the health or safety of an implementing partner or program beneficiary," or "harm the national interests of the United States."

And then your red curls will become familiar and they will simply start beating you (c).After the defeat of USAID, many suddenly began to question what was financed through this line.

Well, the very fact that the Soros Foundation is working in your country is a sign of a disregard for your own security.

The most correct attitude towards the Soros Foundation is to close all of the foundation’s structures on the territory of the country and to bring to criminal and administrative responsibility those who receive funding through this line.

Oh my. Do they somehow sense that President Trump will not leap to the defense of the Soros people?
