...court inquiry, new duties and new tax rules could cost the company more than $650 million next year, and even lead to its breakup. No wonder Abramovich likes London. He had ample reason to think he'd won the Kremlin's favor. In 2001, he bought the ort TV channel for $150 million from Boris Berezovsky, once Putin's ally, then his bitter foe, and turned it over to the state. He also invested several hundred million of his own money to improve living conditions in depressed Chukotka province. For the first time ever, the population of Chukotka started receiving...
Regardless, the first step in the anti-Berezovsky campaign will probably be to undermine his hold on the country's biggest TV network, ORT. Insiders predict that Putin will either cancel ORT's license, which is up for renewal in May, or give its airwaves to the government-controlled RTR network.
