摘要
We all know that most politicians have massive financial backers that helped them secure their positions. In America, it’s usually lobbying groups and billionaires and in Russia, it’s usually oligarchs. One of the most notable Oligarchs that not only made Putin president but also Yeltsin president is a man named Vladimir Potanin. Potanin was born to a high-ranking communist family and he became a well-respected communist bureaucrat himself. Once the Soviet Union fell, however, Potanin turned his focus to private banking. Around the same time, Russia was having massive liquidity problems and Yeltsin was trying to win reelection. Potanin saw this as a massive opportunity and decided to lend money to the government as long as they pledged government assets as collateral. Potanin was likely expecting Russia to default because this gave him control of some of the biggest Russian companies. Potanin has since used this massive fortune to influence politics, social issues, and pricing. This video explains the rise of Vladimir Potanin and how he made Putin president.
