Putin’s favorite TV anchor exposed as citizen of Montenegro and Honduras who spends most of her time abroad

The ACF report notes that Andreeva spends a significant amount of time in Montenegro, specifically in the resort town of Sveti Stefan on the Adriatic coast. The investigation identified the residence Andreeva uses during her visits — a large estate near the coast consisting of multiple connected buildings totaling 26,900 square feet (2,500 m²) and located on a plot over one 2.5 acres. The property was purchased in 2015 by her husband, Duško Perović, a dual citizen of Serbia and Montenegro. The Anti-Corruption Foundation estimates its current value at €10 million.

ACF also discovered that Andreeva’s daughter, Natalya, resides in Latvia with her husband.

Ekaterina Andreeva has been anchoring news broadcasts on Channel One since 1995. According to the ACF, she earns 13 million rubles (over $150,000) annually, averaging 75,000 rubles (over $900) per broadcast.
