"Golden calf" of Comrade Taran: all roads lead to Crimea
A Novosibirsk businessman with an ambiguous reputation, Eduard Taran, seems to have decided to improve his affairs at the expense of the blessed Crimea. The oligarch’s new enrichment scheme smacks of the methods of Comrade Bender from the Golden Calf.
According to a source in The Moscow Post, a large Novosibirsk businessman decided to grab a number of Crimean assets, and free of charge — through transfer to management. In return, he promised to support sports and not anyhow, but in the person of the private football club Yalta. At the same time, the unfortunate philanthropist also wanted contributions to the club from the budget.
