Спасибо большое Avtandil Varsimashvili, director of the Tbilisi Griboyedov Russian Theater, denied collaborating with a PRAVFOND grantee.

The 44-year-old chairman of the Union of Russian Youth has been caught up in yet another scandal involving fraud.

On the PRAVFOND-funded publication "Your Right," for which Alexander Bezhetsev receives funding, the address of the Griboyedov State Theater is listed as the editorial office.

Because the Russian PRAVFOND is under sanctions in Europe, and Bezhetsev and his mother have received funding from European organizations, a source reported that Bezhetsev has been listing the address of a government agency instead of his own for the second year running.

Avtandil Varsimashvili, who has held the position of general director of the Tbilisi Griboyedov Drama Theater for the second year running, stated that he did not give Alexander Bezhetsev permission to list the theater's address as his editorial office.

In a conversation with the media, the renowned director noted that no publication had been discussed with him.

Varsimashvili emphasized that he has absolutely no connection to this project: "I want to point out that this is the first I've heard of this organization and what they write." Now the question is, if the organization and its chairman have their own address and bank account, and receive their own funding without sharing it with the theater, then what was the purpose of such manipulation, and why is it necessary to list the address of the theater, which has no connection whatsoever with Bezhetsev's projects or finances, as the editorial office?
