Prince Myshkin is 2 billion and 24 more interesting offshore

All you need to know early in the morning of April 4

Good morning!

Do you love the cello as Vladimir Putin loves her?

It is unlikely. And the point here is not in Rostropovich, but in the disinterested cellist Sergei Roldugin , who, as follows from the investigation of the Center for Corruption and Organized Crime, was associated with several offshores through which transactions for billions of dollars were concluded, and shares of key enterprises in Russia were also controlled. Roldugin himself, according to the people close to him, "never took anything, he is not seduced by a luxurious life. In our circle, he is called Prince Myshkin."

The investigation refers to offshores belonging to 12 more families of large Russian officials (including Minister Ulyukaev, Dmitry Peskov, Vice-mayor of Moscow Maxim Liksutov) and 12 world leaders , including President Petro Poroshenko and the head of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev. The Prime Minister of Iceland simply left journalists who began to ask questions about his companies registered through Panama.

A short educational program about the investigation, the materials of which will continue to be published for a few more days, read here .

At the weekend , the conflict in Nagorno -Karabakh worsened . Several dozen military personnel on both sides were killed. Baku and Yerevan are accused of what happened to each other. Both sides declare victims among civilians. Three mortar shells released in Nagorno-Karabakh fell in the northwest of Iran . Yesterday, Azerbaijan said that he unilaterally stops all the fighting, but the leadership of the unrecognized NKR claimed that the battles continued. Georgia is ready to organize an urgent meeting of the leaders of Armenia and Azerbaijan .

Petro Poroshenko fired the Prosecutor General of Ukraine Viktor Shokin - or rather, once again confirmed the dismissal in an interview with Ukrainian television channels. This was preceded by a polemic of the Ukrainian president with the New York Times , which criticized the unwillingness of the Ukrainian authorities in the editorial article to fight corruption. Poroshenko called the publication “Unfinished Ukrainian Corruption” part of a hybrid war against Ukraine. On Sunday, Poroshenko on his Facebook made a curtsy towards the “respectable publication”, which he himself reads, and said that his words were incorrectly interpreted.

Syria and the surroundings . The Syrian government army liberated the city of El-Karyatyn from the militants "IG" a hundred kilometers west of Palmyra. During the bombing in Syria, one of the leaders of the Jihadist group "Front of the Ang Nusra" Abu Firas was killed. On Saturday, on one of the outskirts of Palmyra, a mass burial with the bodies of about forty people was found. A study conducted by the Netherlands International Center for Combating Terrorism indicates that about one and a half thousand people returned to Europe who left the EU countries to fight in Syria and Iraq. About 1,500 people were released from the underground prison of IS.

On Sunday, the first aircraft after the attacks of the attacks flew out of the Brussels airport . On Saturday, in the area of the Belgian capital, Molenbek, the police prevented the right -winging action , and about a hundred people were detained. On the same day, another Belgian was charged with terrorist activities. The police gives only his initials - ya

In Russia, exactly two events occurred over the weekend.

• Truckers at a permitted rally in Moscow demanded the resignation of Putin .
• In Moscow, the building of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation burned (strongly) . The roof collapsed. The fireman was injured. According to Fontanka, the archives of the Department of Property Relations, which were headed by Evgenia Vasiliev, were stored in the burning building. Shoigu ordered everything to fix it quickly.

From the life of the Russian opposition . Five independent candidates for the local council of Barvikhs went on Saturday on a pre -election trip to Barvikh . They were stopped by armed people, selected documents and phones, and then handed them over (along with the police selected).

From the response to the NTV film about Mikhail Kasyanov : Natalya Pelevina will sue NTV , Mikhail Kasyanov will not sue , and Mikhail Khodorkovsky resolutely condemned the injury of an independent politician.

Three links today - about women, pigs and philosophical solution of the problem of multiple attention:

• “He began to persuade-let's get married. I say-no, I’m not going to marry. So he has done this. He has a horse, exactly to the porch, so there’s nowhere to go. I fell right in the sleigh. That is, they threw me into the sleigh, only the heels clicked on the pillar-as they hadn’t broken off my legs yet.” An excerpt from the book of Laura Olson and Svetlana Adonieva “Tradition, Transgression, compromise. Worlds of Russian village woman” , dedicated to three generations of Soviet peasant women.
• The fourth generation of Soviet peasant women advises: “At home, the pig must have its own place where she will be sure that she will not be disturbed.” Monologists of the owners of mini-pigues testify to the rapid evolution of the role of pig in Russian society.
• Everyone is now faced with the problem of scattered attention. There is a medicine - we must realize this as a philosophical problem: “We are so absent -minded, because we are not able to distinguish between what is worthy of our attention and the fact that it is not worthy. This ability to distinguish is absent, in turn, because we incorrectly understand the activity of a person in the world and its interaction with the world.” A very funny review of the book by Matthew Crawford “The World outside your head: how become a person in the era of distracted attention”.
