Lukoil President Vagit Alekperov. Who owns Lukoil? Russian oil company PJSC "Lukoil". Education of Vagit Alekperov

In fact, the finest hour of gays, which allowed them to reach the top of power, took place after the collapse of the USSR. As you know, in the USSR, not only '' there was no sex '', but homosexual relations were also punishable. By the Criminal Code. But, '' new Russia'' Showed tolerance and gay relations were decriminalized. And this was the first step towards the Kremlin.

In 1994, a scandal broke out - the deputy head of the press service of the President of the Russian Federation, Sergei Belenkov, fell out of the window. He survived. It would seem, so what? "Falling out of the window" is a fairly common way to kill politicians, but in this case it turned out to be much more prosaic. A high-ranking official hosted a gay party and simply overdid it in extreme orgies with his partners. The presidential security service, led by Korzhakov, close to Yeltsin, soon found out that the presidential administration turned out to be a hotbed of gays - at least 15 high-ranking officials preferred their own sex to the opposite sex. The gay government turned out to be up to 20%.

If someone thinks that under Putin, gays were cleaned out, then.

The interregional movement Unity, created specifically for Prime Minister Putin with the aim of bringing him to the presidency, had a strong gay lobby. The head of this lobby was MP Vladislav Reznik, then also the deputy head of Unity. Gays and I. Dinesa (member of the State Duma Committee on Budget and Taxes, head of the State Duma's expert council on lotteries and gambling business), V. Golovleva (member of the State Duma Committee on Budget and Taxes), A. Wolf (member of the State Duma Committee on Information politics), V. Semenov (Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee for Culture and Tourism), A. Barannikova (member of the State Duma Committee on Legislation), V. Kopteva-Dvornikova (Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Property)

Needless to say that in United Russia Is this citizen still a prominent member of the ruling party?

The gray cardinal of the Kremlin - Vladislav Surkov (real name - Aslanbek Dudayev), although he is not openly gay, but the pro-Kremlin youth movements created by him, ‘’ our ’’ and ’‘ Young Russia ’

Enjoy the parties of young Russia activists - ‘strong male friendship’ ’. And this is only a small part of the photos (the rest can be seen at the link)

And here Surkov stands with his beloved boy - this pro-Putin movement activist and gay part-time, according to rumors, is especially loved by Surkov-Dudaev.

Vasily Yakemenko - Surkov's friend, leader of the Nashi movement (already disbanded) and the head of the also liquidated agency for youth affairs also does not shy away from boys, but he also loves girls, i.e. is bisexual. The customs on the Seligers, the gatherings of these movements, would also make Europe tolerant

In the summer we went to Seliger, tens of thousands of children from all over Russia are brought there. And I had long hair, T-shirts, in general - and you can see from a kilometer away. It so happened that for several thousand people I was the only one. They even came to see me. Some bogies rolled up who tried to convince me that it was so wrong. But our guys drove them with sticks.

This is said by Ruslan Savolainen, an activist of the pro-Kremlin movement close to Yakemenko.

Be gay and walk with your head held high - Our movement will provide you

And when I last time came to Seliger, there were already two guys - a couple who lived openly together. Then a small community was organized among the lesbians, and one of my classmates just came out there.

And the higher authority does not mind

Yakemenko once expressed himself in the spirit of Putin that, they say, I am not against it, only that demography is suffering. (I saw Putin and Medvedev and greeted them by the hand.)

Those. You can fight boys, but the necessary minimum is to make a child, be kind. And then with the boys you can.

It is worth noting that our gays are in power - this maxim is strictly followed: Yakemenko has two children, Surkov has three.

The myth that gay men allegedly do not marry or have children should be smashed. In societies that have a negative attitude towards gays, the latter have to mimic the norm, that's all.

Yakemenko, by the way, also took part in a very unambiguous

I must say that even after Surkov's departure, the AP did not become more traditional. The next first deputy heads of the Presidential Administration - Volodin and Kiriyenko, according to rumors, are also gay. Nikolay Alekseev, the organizer of the gay pride parade in Moscow, passed Volodin

V. Romensky - [...] there are many rumors in the ruling elite that there are also many people with non-traditional sexual orientation.
T. Olevsky - Why don't they support you?
N. Alekseev - Do you want me to name them?
V. Romensky - Yes, of course. Come on, name it.
N. Alekseev - Do you want me to name them? I will now name them on your live broadcast.
V. Romensky - Come on.
N. Alekseev - Deputy Head of the Administration of President Putin Volodin is a person of homosexual orientation. The head of Sberbank of Russia, Gref, is a face of homosexual orientation. The head of Sheremetyevo airport is a person of homosexual orientation. And you still need to continue?
T. Olevsky - Enough. Why don't they support you, why didn't they protect you?
N. Alekseev - But they don't need it. They have all the rights

http://www.echo.msk.ru/programs/oni/1081166-echo

This statement provoked a corresponding reaction - the news was published by Alekseev with the US State Department, who allegedly paid him money for ‘’ compromising evidence ’’ on Kremlin officials. Then, that the State Department letter was replete with gross spelling errors

In general, the sediment remained. As for Kiriyenko, he allegedly appeared in a fight in the gay club Chameleon (Moscow) back in 1998.

Blue mafia.

An inquisitive reader will ask - well, they are gay, so what? Sexual Orientation in the state. management is not so important, the main thing is professionalism. The problem here is that, in combination, these persons are also criminals.

The same Volodin, when he worked in the Ayatskov government in Saratov region introduced the practice of 5% kickbacks that he received personally from businessmen, officials, the budget, etc. Without these kickbacks, no economic activity in the area it was impossible to lead. This is how the scheme was described by journalists

By conspiracy with the head of the city of Saratov Grishchenko O.The. his assistant Andrey Krasnov - collected money from persons obliged to do kickbacks at Volodin's request. These amounts are in the Saratov region within 200-250 mil. rub. monthly RUB 65 million of this amount Krasnov monthly delivers Volodin to Moscow and gave them to him in cash, the rest of the amount remained with Grishchenko, and part went to other leaders of the region and the city. This continued for a long time, when Ayatskov and then Ipatov were governors. But later, Ipatov began to oppose this method of pumping money out of the regional budget. On this basis, conflicts began between Ipatov and Volodin, which ended with Ipatov being forced to resign, and Volodin prolapsed the appointment of his homosexual partner Valery Radaev to the post of governor of the region, who regularly transfers the indicated monetary kickbacks from the region to Volodin to this day.

Kiriyenko also introduced a system of kickbacks and theft in the Rosatom headed by him (before he came to the Presidential Administration).

- But I stole 100 million

Weak guy, where do you go to my Dagestani billions

Thus, 26 million rubles were stolen through the subsidiary of Rosatom, OKB Gidropress. The design work of the elements of the NPP was planned.

OR $ 100 million spent on hand manipulators for nuclear waste storage. The money was also stolen.

As a result, Kiriyenko's deputy Yevgeny Evstratov was taken into custody. He stole almost 50 million rubles, given out for fictitious research projects on nuclear safety.

Kiriyenko does not shy away from nepotism: the head of Rosatom's asset protection department, S.V. Bratanov, the former head of the Internal Affairs Directorate for the Nizhny Novgorod Region, who is married to Sergei Kirienko's cousin. His deputy is also from Nizhny. Needless to say that Kirienko is from Nizhny Novgorod?

The aforementioned Yakemenko is a member of the Lyubertsy criminal group, according to

He was also associated with an organized criminal group from Naberezhnye Chelny through Akbars LLP, which he co-founded with the mafiosi from Tatarstan - Adygan Salyakhov, Alexander Vlasov, Nail Nuriakhmetov, Rosil Rakhmatullin and Yuri Eremenko. Yakemenko owned 18.69% of Akbars.

As a result, all the co-founders of Akbars LLP, except for Yakemenko himself, were found guilty of criminal offenses.

“I am deeply impressed by the presence in the Russian government in the rank of minister of a man named Yakemenko. More than twenty years ago I knew him as one of the active members of the Lyubertsy group, ”General Ovchinsky said.

Konstantin Eduardovich Dobrynin - Russian political and public figure, from March 2012 to September 2015 a member of the Federation Council of the FS from the Arkhangelsk region. Deputy Chairman of the Federation Council Committee on Constitutional Legislation and State Building.

The citizen said that it would be nice to reduce social aggression towards gays.

From the curriculum vitae

From 2001 to 2004, he worked as Deputy Director and Acting Head of the Legal Department of Ilim Pulp Enterprise CJSC. Took part in the dispute between Basic Element and Ilim Pulp Enterprise. For a long time he worked in the pulp and paper industry.

The company was founded in 1992 under the name of Ilim Pulp Enterprise CJSC. Among the co-founders of CJSC Finzell, which established CJSC Ilim Pulp Enterprise, in addition to Zakhar Davidovich Smushkin and the Zingarevich brothers, was D.A. Medvedev, the third President Russian Federation... At the same time, Medvedev owned 50% in Finzell CJSC, and 20% in Ilim Pulp Enterprise.

Interesting, isn't it? Gay lobbyists have business partnerships with senior officials of the Russian Federation.

By the way, in an interview with Radio Svoboda, Dobrynin rejects all attempts of the journalist to somehow '' defame '' the Federation Council, he also said that he respects Chairman Matvienko very much, and indeed, he did not experience any problems with his opposition in the Federation Council and found ‘’ mutual language'' With the senators.

Vagit Yusufovich Alekperov (azerb. Vahid Yusif oğlu Ələkbərov; genus. September 1, 1950, Baku) - Russian entrepreneur and manager. General Director of the Kogalymneftegaz Production Association (1987-1990), Deputy (1990-1991) and First Deputy Minister of the USSR Oil and Gas Industry (1991-1992), President of the Langepasuraikogalymneft Oil Concern (1992-1993), President and co-owner of the largest oil company Russian "LUKOIL" (since 1993). Owner of 36.8% of the shares of the football club "Spartak" (Moscow). Doctor of Economic Sciences .

Biography

From 1972 to 1974, Vagit Alekperov worked as an oil and gas production operator at the Kasmorneft Production Association. In 1974 he graduated with a degree in mining engineer on technology and complex mechanization of oil and gas field development. In the period from 1974 to 1979 he worked as a senior engineer-technologist of the district engineering and technological service No. 2, shift supervisor, oil and gas production foreman, senior engineer, deputy head of the oil field of the NGDU named after A. Serebrovsky PO Kasmorneft.

Western Siberia

In the late 1970s, Alekperov was assigned to Western Siberia according to the party list. He worked in executive positions in the subdivisions of the production association "Surgutneftegas": in 1979-1980 he was a senior engineer, deputy head and head of the oil and gas production department of the oil and gas production department "Fedorovskneft", in 1980-1981 he was the head of the central engineering and technological service oil and gas production department "Kholmogorneft", and in 1981-1983 was the chief engineer and deputy head of the oil and gas production department "Lyantorneft".

In 1983-1985 in the village of Kogalym Alekperov headed the Povkhneft oil and gas production department of the Bashneft production association. In 1985 he was appointed First Deputy General Director of PA Bashneft for Western Siberia.

In 1987-1990 (according to other sources - in 1987-1989) Alekperov was the general director of PO Kogalymneftegaz. According to the Kommersant newspaper, heading this production association, Alekperov almost immediately established contacts with all the major heads of the Siberian branches of oil companies, including the head of Langepasneftegaz, Yuri Shafranik, with whom he later founded Lukoil.

The media wrote that during the leadership of the Kogalymneftegaz Production Association Alekperov, being by that time a member of the CPSU, came into conflict with the Tyumen regional party committee. The magazine "Profile" explained that Alekperov, contrary to the instructions of the party leadership, ordered the construction of housing in Kogalym for oil workers not from wooden barracks, but from brick houses. Alekperov was severely reprimanded for arbitrariness.

The press claimed that Kogalym remained in the center of Alekperov's attention for a long time. It was noted that thanks to his efforts, the standard of living in Kogalym was considered almost the highest in the USSR. The head of Kogalymneftegaz managed to ensure that the employees of the department were paid for the supplied oil not by barter (which was quite a frequent occurrence in the second half of the 1980s), but by money. In addition, Alekperov in different years Was elected a deputy of the Surgut district, Kogalym city Councils of people's deputies, a member of the Kogalym city bureau and a member of the Khanty-Mansiysk district committees of the CPSU.

Transfer to Moscow

In 1990 (according to other sources, in 1989) Alekperov was appointed Deputy Minister of the USSR Oil and Gas Industry. After this appointment, many joked that Alekperov was transferred to the ministry for the successful construction of communism in a separate Siberian city. Perhaps such jokes were also circulated because the journalists - neither then nor later - did not manage to find anyone who contributed to Alekperov's transfer to Moscow.

Alekperov turned out to be the youngest deputy minister of the USSR (he was not yet forty years old), moreover, the time for taking office was very successful - Western oil companies had just started looking for partners in Russia. In 1990, when British Petroleum organized a visit by a group of Soviet oil workers to Great Britain, Alekperov was instructed to select the composition of the delegation. He appointed himself its leader and, according to Rondo Fehlberg, a BP employee who worked with the delegation, carefully questioned managers about how oil companies are created in the West. According to The New York Times, it was after returning from this trip that Alekperov tackled the problem of creating a vertically integrated oil company, that is, one that would simultaneously be engaged in exploration, production, refining and sale of oil (within soviet system these functions have been separated). Alekperov realized that it was important not only to privatize the industry, but to do it in such a way that it was possible to create financially stable enterprises.

At that time, the ministry was headed by Leonid Filimonov, who previously headed the Nizhnevartovskneftegaz company. It was argued that it was in co-authorship with him that Alekperov developed a scheme for the so-called vertical integration of oil companies (VIOCs). She also formed the basis for his doctoral dissertation, which Alekperov defended in the summer of 1999. The essence of the concept was to unite into a single holding the entire chain of enterprises involved in oil production, refining and sale of the final product.

In 1991 Alekperov became the first deputy minister of the oil and gas industry of the USSR. Already in 1992, he left the ministry and became the head of the oil concern Langepasuraikogalymneft, which united the largest in the USSR fields Langepas, Urai and Kogalym, as well as several oil refineries. The concern itself was created by a resolution of the Council of Ministers of the RSFSR, adopted in November 1991. Like other enterprises created on the basis of Soviet industry, the concern became the property of the Russian state.

Lukoil

On April 5, 1993, on the basis of the decree of Russian President Boris Yeltsin on the privatization of oil industry enterprises, the state concern was transformed into a joint-stock company named “Oil Company Lukoil” - after the first letters of its three fields.

In the same year, Alekperov was elected both president and chairman of the board of Lukoil. By 2002 Alekperov owned 10.4% of the company's shares.

In 1995 Alekperov was elected Chairman of the Board of Directors of Imperial Bank. In the same year, he was included in the board of the Ministry of Fuel and Energy.

In April 1996, Alekperov became Yeltsin's confidant in the Tyumen region in the presidential elections, having received the right to go on vacation for the entire duration of the election campaign and to campaign.

On January 28, 1997, Alekperov became a member of the government commission on CIS issues (and remained in this position until February 2, 1998).

In 2000 Alekperov resigned from the post of head of the board of directors of Lukoil, but retained the post of president of the company. As noted on the official website of Lukoil, over the years of work under the leadership of Alekperov, the joint-stock company has made a significant step forward towards transformation into an efficient global energy company. Thus, the company's capitalization in five years has grown from 10 to 60 billion dollars, and the return on invested capital has increased from 16 to 23 percent. At the same time, sales proceeds increased by 315 percent, net profit - by 206 percent.

In May 2008, Alekperov acquired 11.13 million shares (1.3 percent) of Lukoil, thereby increasing his stake to 20.4 percent and becoming the largest shareholder in the company. The deal amounted to 24.57 billion rubles.

In 2011, Vagit Alekperov was re-elected to the post of president of Lukoil, in 2016 he was re-elected for another five-year term.

Status and position in the Forbes rating

According to Forbes magazine, Alekperov's personal fortune in 1996 was $ 3.7 billion. For the first time, the size of Alekperov's wages was officially announced in 2002 in connection with the upcoming placement of ADS for the state-owned shareholding of the company. At that time, according to a five-year contract, the salary of the president of Lukoil was $ 1.5 million per year, plus an annual bonus of $ 3.336 million (150% of the salary).

In 2015, he took 6th place on the Forbes list with a fortune of $ 12.2 billion.

In 2016, the volume of assets decreased to $ 8.9 billion, which put the entrepreneur on the 9th line of the Forbes rating in Russia and 124th in the world.

In 2017 Alekperov again falls into the Forbes hundred, taking 74th place in the world and 6th in Russia with a capital of $ 14.5 billion

Social activity

In October 2000 Alekperov was included in the board of the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs (RSPP) - the all-Russian public organizationrepresenting the interests of the business community. According to the RSPP charter, every three years the bureau of its board is renewed by a third, and in 2003 Alekperov got the opportunity to become a member of the bureau. In 2006, the president of Lukoil was again included in the board and bureau of the RUIE. In June 2006, he headed the created RSPP Committee on Energy Security, Energy Efficiency and Development of the Fuel and Energy Complex.

In May 2005, Alekperov was presented with the Woodrow Wilson award for achievements in the development of corporate citizenship (it is awarded to leaders in the field of government controlled and businesses that strive to improve the quality of life, both in their home country and abroad).

Currently, Vagit Alekperov is engaged in extensive social and charitable activities. His main brainchild in this area, the Our Future Foundation for Regional Social Programs, was founded in 2007 and since then has been actively promoting and supporting social entrepreneurship in Russia. Also, Vagit Alekperov has been a member of the Skolkovo Foundation Council since 2010 and is the founder of a number of other charitable organizations.

The museum exhibits Alekperov's personal numismatic collection, as well as coins from other private collections and state collections.

Vagit Alekperov has repeatedly publicly stated and confirmed that, according to the will and testament, his stake in Lukoil (more than 20% of the company's shares) will be transferred to a specially created charitable foundation.

In the spring of 2016, the media actively discussed the information that appeared about the purchase of vineyards by Vagit Alekperov in Crimea, shortly after the annexation of the peninsula to Russia. Elias, allegedly affiliated with the billionaire, has bought 36 hectares of former Massandra vineyards. At the same time, several times more than its market value was paid for the plot, which, according to the terms of sale, was intended exclusively for growing grapes. In this regard, concerns were expressed that new owner can develop these lands and destroy the vineyards.

Alekperov was most criticized in connection with the likely deal from the Ukrainian media, while Russian lawyers pointed to the high risk of sanctions against the entrepreneur from the European Union and the United States, if the information about the purchase is confirmed.

Vagit Alekperov was born on September 1, 1950 in the village of Stepan Razin, Azerbaijan. The boy was the fifth child in the family. His father, Yusuf Kerbalayevich, a native of Baku, worked as a simple locksmith in the oil fields, a veteran of the Great Patriotic War... Mother, Tatyana Fedorovna Bocharova, took care of the children. The father died in 1953, when Vagit was only three years old, then the mother alone had to take care of raising her children.

To feed the children, Tatiana changed jobs one after another. After some time, life began to improve. Zuleikha's older sister began working at a local oil well. The second sister, Nelya, after graduating from a music school, began to give private violin lessons.

At an early age, at the insistence of his sister, Vagit began to try to master the violin. However, the soul of the future businessman was drawn to completely different heights. From an early age, the boy tried to be of some use to his family. Following in his father's footsteps, in 1969 Alekperov decided to enter the Azerbaijan Institute of Oil and Chemistry with a degree in mining engineer for technology and complex mechanization of oil and gas field development.

Vagit Alekperov is one of the richest people in Russia, whose fortune in 2017 is estimated at $ 14.5 billion. The billionaire ascended to the heights of financial well-being from the bottom of the oil sector and from the position of an ordinary driller rose to the president of the second largest oil company in Russia, Lukoil. ...

Alekperov Vagit Yusufovich was born on September 1, 1950 in the village of Stepan Razin, located not far from the Azerbaijani capital Baku, in a large family, in which he became the fifth, youngest of the children. Father Yusuf Kerbalayevich Alekperov, an Azerbaijani by nationality, worked as a locksmith in the oil fields and was a veteran of the Great Patriotic War, and his mother, Russian Cossack Tatyana Fedorovna Bocharova, ran a household and raised children.

When the future oil tycoon was 3 years old, a grief happened in the family - his father died, the cause of death was the wounds received during the war and not fully healed. As a result, the mother was left alone with five children in her arms and without a livelihood. The woman fought desperately for the children and worked around the clock to feed them. Tatyana Fedorovna categorically rejected the offer to send the children to an orphanage, which they highly appreciated and tried to help the mother pull the family out of poverty.

To help his mother to feed his family, little Vagit also did not stay away from the common cause: the boy was engaged in fishing "fishing" - he set up shifts far in the Caspian Sea and collected a catch from them by the evening of every day. Trying to be useful to the family, Alekperov did not forget about education. Vagit studied at school perfectly well, was a calm and diligent boy.

The main authority for Alekperov throughout his life was his mother, whom his son did not want to upset with his own behavior. Therefore, yard games with peers were unacceptable for the future oilman, who from early childhood wanted to link his fate with black gold. For this, the young man graduated from the Azerbaijan Institute of Oil and Chemistry and with a mining engineer diploma boldly set off on a long journey for his dream.

In 1990, the young entrepreneurial leader was invited to Moscow to the post of Deputy Minister of the Oil Industry. Alekperov's duties included establishing contacts with foreign colleagues.
