Person:notes | Vladimir Sergeevich KIRIYENKO est le PDG de VK Company Limited. VK Company Limited est une société russe de l'internet, qui occupe une place importante dans le segment russophone de l'internet. Collectivement, ce sont les projets de VK qui ont eu la plus large audience en Russie et capté le plus de temps d'écran. Sur une base mensuelle, plus de 90% des internautes russes consultent les sites de VK et l'entreprise figure parmi les cinq plus grandes sociétés de l'internet, si l'on considère le nombre total de pages consultées. VK Company contrôle et exploite les trois sites de réseaux sociaux russes les plus importants et les plus populaires que sont VKontakte, Odnoklassniki et Moi Mir, ainsi que le service de messagerie électronique et le portail internet mail.ru. Vladimir Sergeevich KIRIYENKO intervient donc dans des secteurs économiques qui constituent une source substantielle de revenus pour le gouvernement de la Fédération de Russie. Le gouvernement russe renforce son influence sur les médias et les réseaux sociaux. VK Company est contrôlée par Gazprom Media (une entreprise publique, qui est la principale source de revenus du gouvernement russe). Vladimir Sergeevich Kiriyenko soutient donc l'objectif de Vladimir Poutine de renforcer le contrôle de l'internet. Vladimir Kiriyenko apporte donc un soutien matériel ou financier actif aux décideurs russes responsables de l'annexion de la Crimée ou de la déstabilisation de l'Ukraine, ou en tire avantage. Étant donné que VK Company est détenue par le groupe public Gazprom, les recettes qu'elle génère constituent une source importante de revenus pour le gouvernement russe. Vladimir Kiriyenko est le fils de Sergei Kiriyenko, actuellement premier chef adjoint du cabinet présidentiel. Sergei Kiriyenko serait celui qui supervise la politique intérieure pour Vladimir Poutine. | fra | fr_tresor_gels_avoir | fr-ga-4462 | |||

Person:notes | Head of the LLC VK (ultimate owner of VK Company Limited). The holding owns many Internet resources controlled by the Russian authorities (VK, Odnoklassniki, and Moi Mir social networks, Mail.ru Internet portal, search engine and e-mail service, ICQ and Tam Tam messengers), which should become a replacement for their foreign counterparts after the latter are blocked. In addition, social networks and services owned by the company have a dubious policy regarding user data, providing it to law enforcement agencies on demand. | ru_acf_bribetakers | acf-eea63cc2e3fc4d348e3c677831e0ca4b7b07f55b | ||||
