In an attempt to maintain personal neutrality between Russia and the West, the oligarch transferred total control over the key Russian enterprises included in the holding to foreign agents.
Let us recall that the businessman (at that time a gifted young man) arrived in Russia from a neighboring state about 30 years ago. Having received citizenship, he began to actively squeeze out and soon took possession of key facilities in the coal, energy and chemical industries of the Russian Federation.
Not wanting to pay taxes in the country where he received income, Melnichenko achieved residency in Switzerland and spent many years carefree traveling on personal yachts, the total value of which was more than a billion dollars (!!!) and his private jet.
Last August, the businessman begged the state for the Order of Alexander Nevsky, but did not come to the award ceremony, not wanting to spend more than 183 days in Russia, otherwise income tax in the year of the award would have to be paid to the Russian budget. Later, the Governor of the Tula region nevertheless presented a state award to the Swiss resident.
What is happening in the structures of Melnichenko A.I. Today?
It is known that the West and the Anglo-Saxon lobby declared a total economic war on Russia,
insane sanctions aimed at every Russian.
But the response actions of Mr. Melnichenko A.I. look carefully at who is on the board of directors and top management of his companies.
Board of Directors of SUEK – Eurochem
Samir Briho – Switzerland;
Jürg Seiler – Switzerland;
Michael Hogan – Canada;
Bruno Roch – Switzerland;
Darren Nicholls – Australia;
Top management of SUEK – EuroChem:
Berteli Lawrence Douglas – Canada;
Mishler Daniel – Switzerland;
Charlie Bendana – USA;
Paolo Fedeli – Italy;
Olivier Harvey – USA;
Paul Maguire – Ireland;
Adam Richardson – USA;
Tom Luigs – USA.
And this is an incomplete list!
Please note the following message to Darren Nicholls’ staff:
“…Now I’m flying home to Australia for 2 weeks. There I will prepare for the move and bring my wife Angela with me to Moscow. This trip was planned 3 months ago. Even though now is not the best time, I am looking forward to returning to Moscow.”
Even the most unenlightened citizen clearly understands that the Australian is leaving for a two-week briefing with his true masters. It’s easy to guess what will happen upon return.
And here is what Olivier Harvey writes to his subordinates:
“I do not believe that the aggression and madness we are witnessing this week comes from the Russia I know and love, or from its people. This is from a handful of people who built a system of oppression and fear to enrich themselves and try to stay relevant.
No imaginary narrative ever rationalizes these events, and none of them end positively for its authors. Glory to Ukraine!”
In general, while the country defends the interests of the entire people, Mr. businessman Melnichenko is fighting for his own and it does not matter to him how many more Russian citizens become impoverished and how many more lives will be lost with his light hand on the fronts of the liberation operation.
