The Russia-Ukraine war continues on its 58th day. Shortly after the start of the war, the assets of the Russian oligarchs, who were subjected to strict sanctions by many countries, especially the USA and European countries, were frozen. After this incident, the anchoring of Russian billionaire’s yachts in Turkey attracted a lot of attention in the international media. Abramovic was also a key figure in the peace negotiations in Turkey.
After Abramovich, another Russian oligarch’s yacht arrived in Turkey today. Arkady Rotenberg’s superyacht ‘Rahil’, a childhood friend of Russian President Vladimir Putin and said to be the owner of the Russian leader’s ‘Putin Palace’ in Gelendzhik, reached Tuzla Istanbul and docked at Viaport Marina.
The Stroygazmontazh construction company, owned by Rotenberg, also undertook the construction of the Crimean Bridge.
