Scandal of day


ALUMINUM OLIGARCH new

Among representatives of big business and the political establishment, the discussion of news which relate to sex relationships of any of them, even more so which relate to the reasons for such relationships, is in poor taste. Nevertheless, a situation in which it is necessary to get married in order to save one's political ambitions cannot remain unnoticed...

RUSSIAN RICHELIEU new

Soon after Vladimir Putin became the president of Russia, presumptions began to appear in Russia's mass media that one of the most odious politicians of Yeltsin's Russia - Alexander Voloshin, the head of the president's administration, would soon resign...

M. KASYANOV'S LAST TANGO new

The President of Russia has expressed discontent with the Cabinet of Ministers' work as a whole and the work of the chiefs of the economic bloc in particular several times lately. But Putin hasn't specified whose work specifically irritated him. Yes - we are speaking about the Russian Prime Minister - M. Kasyanov.

PRIME MINISTER'S PRIVY COUNCILLOR new

Lately the mass media has published articles saying that the old Family is regenerating into a new Family by getting rid of useless members (like B. Berezovsky) and accepting new members, but without changing the Family essence and continuing to be a shadow structure with power and money concentrated in it's hands.

POOR...VANIN!

Not long ago a scandal with political implication broke out in Russia - two serious organizations grappled with each other: General Office of Public Prosecutor and State Customs Committee (ราส). We remind you that this scandal, to which much attention was given in the mass media, was just a commonplace criminal case based on materials of the State Customs Committee - a case of smuggling furniture by the companies "Grand" and "Tri Kita". S. Zuev addressed the General Prosecutor with the charge that State Customs Committee officers extorted money from him.

INVASION BY CLONES

Remote monitoring of the political situation in Russia, carried out by leading western analysts on the basis of messages provided by independent correspondents accredited in Moscow and other large cities, makes it possible to make an unambiguous conclusion: the formation that was fused by joint economical interests, and at the end of the twentieth and beginning of the twenty-first centuries was commonly called the Family, is in the process of reincarnation...

GEORGIAN PRINCE RUNS RUSSIAN STAGE

At the present time, Arkady Patarkatsishvily - the right hand of Boris Berezovsky and close friend of the president of Georgia, Eduard Shevardnadze, is seriously engaged by the problem of restoring his own image. By making investments in the development of Georgia, participating in philanthropic donations, Patarkatsishvily is trying as hard as he can to draw the attention of the whole world to himself.

"FAMILY" IN AGONY (Search for a political donor)

In the opinion of an outside observer, genetics is a science that is not too strict. But some of its laws are so indisputable that their action spreads over many other spheres of human relationships. For example, the peoples of the Far North have from the very beginning used "traveling gigolos" to strengthen the gene pool of settlements and individual families spread over territory from the White Sea to Chukotka itself.

FAMILY SECRETS

According to information obtained from informed sources in Russia, B. Berezovsky, who stands in "uncompromising opposition" to the President of Russia, has recently begun to have doubts about the position he had chosen and has begun to look for people who can help him to establish a truce with the Authorities. More than anything else, the disgraced oligarch was disappointed with the Family members' behavior, to be more precise, the behavior of the New Family, the base of which consists of T. Yumasheva (Dyachenko), V. Yumashev and young businessman O. Deripaska (the husband of Yumashev's daughter by his first marriage).

FAITHFUL IGOR

For Igor Sechin December 31, 1999 was really a momentous day. After the sensational resignation of B. Yeltsin and the designation of V. Putin as his successor, Sechin became the head of the president's office, officially the Deputy Head of the administration of the President of Russia...

BOSS OF CHUKOTKA PRIOR TO ELECTIONS

Quite a bit has been written in the mass media about the present governor of Chukotka. It is a known fact that Roman Abramovich, being the de facto owner of the large oil company "Sibneft," has for the last five years been a member of the group of oligarchs who are close to the "family" of B. Yeltsin, the former president of Russia. Roman Abramovich is especially close to Yeltsin's daughter, Tatyana Dyachenko, who runs all the financial projects of the "family." In the small group of political and financial elite, Abramovich is considered to be the "shadow general" of the "family," the person on whom the financial prosperity of the latter depends.

ALFONSO - FRIEND OF THE "FAMILY"

Rumors fly that the family relationship between Tatyana Dyachenko, the daughter of the former Russian president, Boris Yeltsin, and Valentin Yumashev, the former head of the president's administration, may significantly worsen.
