The International Consortium of Investigative Journals has announced the "Russia Archive, an inside look at the hidden wealth of oligarchs and elites close to Putin"
In response to the brutal invasion of Ukraine, governments around the world have imposed a series of unprecedented economic sanctions against Russia, its oligarchs and the political leaders surrounding Vladimir Putin.
Russian elites have long been important clients of the secretive offshore financial industry that helps to funnel vast wealth — much of it stolen public assets — out of Russia and into Western bank accounts, financial instruments, lavish homes, yachts and other stores of value.
And for 10 years, the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, the global leader in cross-border collaborative journalism, has worked to expose this ill-gotten wealth, along with the secretive offshore network that helps to hide it. [...]
Today [8th March], ICIJ announces the Russia Archive, a library of previous Russia-related exposés, now the focus of renewed interest, as well as ongoing investigations into the hidden wealth of the Putin regime’s ruling elites.
One trusts that the Prime Minister and the Chancellor have the ICIJ feed at the top of their RSS list.
