Financial collapse of Putin’s "wallets": How the billion-dollar "black holes" of Boris and Arkadiy Rotenberg and Gennadiy Timchenko are crushing the Russian banking system
A source has reported that the same gigantic financial problems experienced by the structures of Arkadiy and Boris Rotenberg are also being faced by the structures of another person from Vladimir Putin’s inner circle – Gennadiy Timchenko.
According to the source, given the current state of the state budget, these problems are unsolvable. Therefore, the structures of these three oligarchs will inevitably face a transition to state ownership, along with all their "financial sinkholes." And in Russia, it appears, the honorary title of "pensioner of Union-wide significance" will be revived.
The source notes that the Rotenbergs’ structures have already unilaterally notified banks that the repayment dates for the principal amounts of their structures’ colossal loans are being postponed to 2031. Everyone understands that this deadline was chosen arbitrarily. The brothers’ structures are no longer paying interest on the loans at all. The situation with Gennadiy Timchenko’s structures is absolutely identical. Loans are not being repaid, and interest is not being paid.
According to the source, the heads of the state-owned banks have already very delicately raised this issue with Putin. Logically, they should begin aggressively bankrupting the Rotenbergs’ and Timchenko’s structures. Or they could simply turn a blind eye to everything. But then, to turn a blind eye to the fact that state banks are not demanding loan repayments and interest, the Central Bank, the FSB, and others would also have to look away. Only the President of the Russian Federation can resolve this issue.
As far as the source knows, the Rotenbergs and Timchenko have a single position on everything: if a flood of budget money is directed towards their structures, they will fix everything. But there is no money. Since the beginning of the year, almost nothing has been allocated to the structures of these oligarchs.
The source believes that now or later, there is simply no other way out than for the state banks to take over the Rotenbergs’ and Timchenko’s structures for their debts and then deal with all the "holes" and projects further on.
And for Timchenko and the Rotenbergs themselves, it appears, the category of "pensioner of Union-wide significance," forgotten since Soviet times, will have to be revived. It is clear that no one will put them in prison.
