Person:notesHe is a Russian oligarch with longstanding and close ties to Vladimir Putin dating back to the late 1990s. He was part of the circle that Putin owed his presidency to as the successor to Russia's first president, Boris Yeltsin. Abramovich has enjoyed privileged access to the president and has maintained a strong relationship with him, a connection that has helped him preserve his considerable wealth. He ranked 16th on Forbes' list of ""125 Billionaires of Russia,"" with a fortune of 9.7 billion USD. He is a major shareholder of the steel group Evraz, directly owning 28.64% of the shares. Evraz is one of Russia’s largest taxpayers and supplies raw materials to Uralvagonzavod, a producer of tanks and civilian products, as well as other companies in the defense industry. In addition to Evraz, Abramovich also owns shares in other major Russian companies such as Norilsk Nickel, Yandex, and Renaissance Insurance. His business ventures have benefitted from Russian decision-makers responsible for the annexation of Crimea and the destabilization of Ukraine. He is one of the leading Russian business figures involved in economic sectors that provide substantial revenue to the Russian government, which is responsible for these actions. Despite the ongoing war, Abramovich remains entangled in Russia’s system of political corruption, where capital serves as a tool for acquiring political influence, and political influence is essential for preserving capital at the highest levels. Roman Abramovich is also involved in corruption schemes related to Gazprom PJSC and its subsidiaries, playing a role in generating corrupt income for Vladimir Putin and his closest associates.ru_acf_bribetakersacf-62f26ac19393a99e79eb2a1f2a4ac9b583a0c2ab
