Descriptions

He is a Russian oligarch. In 2023, he ranked 72nd on Forbes' list of "110 Billionaires of Russia," with a fortune of 1.6 billion USD. He renounced his Russian citizenship and is now a citizen of Croatia and Dominica. He is trusted by Vladimir Putin, as shown by public investigations revealing that he was granted the rights to produce vodka under the name of Vladimir Putin (Putinka). The proceeds from these sales were used to fund individuals close to the authorities, including Putin's mistress Alina Kabaeva. His ongoing influence is evident from Putin's decision to award Vasily Anisimov a state honor in October 2022, even after Anisimov renounced his Russian citizenship in September 2022. Anisimov's foreign assets may be used to finance individuals close to Putin and to further Russian interests.
