The man of the week. Roman Abramovich

Dmitry Volchek: A man of the Week of Radio Liberty - Roman Abramovich, a 39 -year -old billionaire who has concluded the largest deal in the latest history of Russia to sell Sibneft’s shares of Gazprom for $ 13 billion.

My colleague Mikhail Sokolov represents a person of the week.

Mikhail Sokolov: The legends of the XX century line about the American billionaire Wolwort, which began with the cleansing of the boots, should change the tales of the 20th century about the Russian orphan Abramovich, which started in the oligarchs either from the cooperative stall, or from the oil traffic, which disappeared along the way to distant countries.

I personally remember only clear blue eyes under white eyelashes of an elegantly unshaven Mr. Abramovich and his bright unearthly smile, with whom a polite novel, during his brief stay in the Duma, sent annoying journalists far and far. I remember how the fate of the true oligarch prophesied - after Berezovsky - made the kings.

But this week, before our eyes, the hero passed the peak of a career, a beautiful departure of the last oligarch took place from the oil business presented to him by the Yeltsin time.

Now there is a cache - almost $ 14 billion - to hit the imagination of the stiff London, where the press is wondering, on some new Chelsea or another white -haired Pelorus, or even the generic castle, the football Don Roman will strike its moshna.

Well, of course, minus the tax submission of millions of millions of 30-40 for the maintenance of the residents of the Chukotka, where this gentleman was hit by the governor, and from his blood, he also provided gifts, hotel and cinema in Anadyr, a ticket to the Chukcham to the warm seas, the awards who served by the bureaucrats, and the percentage of the floor of the two -year -olds. local budget.

The now farm fate of Roman Abramovich is a mirror reflection of the disasters of the robbed Mikhail Khodorkovsky. An example of the flowering owner of Chelsea and the fate of the prison site, is another science. Putin lesson to the business people.

Do not go into politics, hand over in time, to whom they say, things, so you will go to peace with great money. Closer and unharmed.

As experts noted, the deal of the Kremlin and Abramovich, that is, forgive Gazprom and Sibneft, looks purely in Russian.

The state concern bought the same stake in Yukos, and then, in the midst of Khodorkovsky’s landing, the honest Russian court was returned to Roman Abramovich back and fuss so that 3 billion dollars paid to him Khodorkovsky, Yukos did not return, but were healed by the noble novel Abramovich, and his partners.

Capital experts noted that with the monopoly sale of Sibneft, Gazprom, despite the fact that the Kremlin did not allow any competition, the participation of Western applicants, the deal is an agreement of the parties in which the budget rollback so beloved by the Russian patriots-states could not be present. Delts between the price of real and overestimated.

The same thing was burned by Mikhail Khodorkovsky, who indicated to Vladimir Putin to buy the state “Rosneft” of the private company Andrei Vavilov North oil at a halved price.

And other experts recalled the stories of the former partners of Abramovich that the young football fan in the economy does not know little, but in fact it is actually a screen.

Abramovich, they say, represents the interests of the previous ruling group, and pleases the former head of state, who created Sibneft, as well as his relatives Tanya with Valya, victories in the Aglitsky football championship. In general, the tycoon served as a “family wallet”, and now, in contrast to the festive “patriotrosneft”, he has raised a mighty “liberalgazpromneft” on the field of political scolding, a possible future for the refuge of ex-president Putin.

And the third prophesies that Sibneft is unlikely to be left in London peace.

And they ask: will the Kremlin Abramovich entrust the only problems of reindeer herder and the honorary mandate of the chief of Chukotka with the corresponding contribution to the needs of the party of unanorous authorities, or will it also demand from him to serve, to the development of all -Russian projects in the field of medicine and education?

At the site of the charming host of Chelsea, it would be worthwhile: they pulled Mikhail Khodorkovsky into the Internet pedagogy, and how did the matter end?
