Banking tycoon Oleg Tinkov has renounced his Russian citizenship, according to a now-deleted Instagram post. On October 31, Tinkov posted a photo depicting the certificate of renunciation of his Russian citizenship and said that he could not “look at all this and be associated with Putin's fascism.” He also stressed that if it were not for Vladimir Putin, there would be no conflict in the so-called “Donetsk People’s Republic” or “DPR.”
