FudoShin :
For our english-spoken friends: Rinat Akhmetov built his fortune within a pro-Russian power structure in post-Soviet Ukraine. Originating from Donetsk, his industrial empire—primarily in coal, steel, and energy—was deeply tied to Russian markets, infrastructure, and political interests. He was a key financier of the pro-Russian Party of Regions, which maintained close ties with the Kremlin under President Yanukovych. In return, Akhmetov benefited from regulatory protection and political shielding, allowing his assets to flourish. After 2014, with the fall of Yanukovych, the annexation of Crimea, and the outbreak of war in Eastern Ukraine, Akhmetov began distancing himself from Russia. But this shift was not ideological — it was purely opportunistic. He adapted his public stance to safeguard his remaining assets and political relevance in a changing geopolitical landscape.

Do you really think he didn’t gain that money back by weapons manufacturing? I am sure he got some of that USA money for the war

We passed around it 10 days ago when we were boating in Sardinia. There was a Security boat immediately following just because we sailed around her. 😂😂😂

He probably paid for a fair amount of it before construction started and a ship this size can take years to build. It wouldn't make sense to just abandon the project at that point and selling it would be extremely difficult. The market for yachts that size isn't exactly large
