Ripped off in Russia

[ingvar]

Canadian companies are losing their investments. Alex Rotzang expected to make a fortune developing the Siberian oil field. But one day last June, as the hard-driving businessman arrived at his office in Moscow, the phone rang. It was his firm's director general, Lyudmila Kondrashina, calling. She had just fled the company's operations office and she sounded terrified. A score of heavily armed men dressed in army fatigues had seized the building and four gunmen barred her way when she attempted to return. "The company has a new director," their leader shouted, waving a document under the muzzle of his AK-47. It was a hostile takeover -- Russian style.

PS: Did things get any better in the last 5 or 6 years

Неизвестно.

С тех пор прошло журналистское расследование, по которому был создан документальный фильм BEAR HUG и показан на CBC.

Я видел этот фильм. Кратко - компания Ротзанга была захвачена людьми олигарха М.Фридмана. Ротзанг пожаловался Путину. Путин сказал - подождите. Ротзанг ждал, ждал, ждал и понял, что ничего не дождется. Да и начал судебные процессы против фридмановских фирм за пределами России.

Сегодня Фридман помещен Путиным в Общественную Палату. Так что в России ему ничего не угрожает.
