Hi, Rosie.
Hi, Rosie.
Well, he is an oligarch.
He is one of, I would say, along with Abramovich, Russia's two most important oligarchs.
He's different from many of them in that he didn't acquire his riches and wealth in assets in the 1990s during the chaos.
He rather built it up as an industrialist.
He's the fertilizer king.
He's big in coal, big in steel.
But he's also a guy who was forced back to Russia because of personal sanctions and having played by the normal rules of oligarchs, ignoring politics, make as much money as you like.
He's now back in Russia.
Politics matters to him.
Russia matters to him.
And he sees Russia heading in a bad direction.
He's not an anti-Putin figure.
He's not an opposition figure.
He's not an anti-war figure.
His plants have supplied ammonia that's gone into explosives for the war.
He's not a rebel.
That's the wrong way to think of this.
This is a man who was able to forget about his homeland.
