"By all appearances, now Mikhail Prokhorov will pay his taxes into the regional treasury. Information concerning his registration in our region recently appeared," the service said.
Onexim confirmed the change in registration. "In such a difficult economic period, it is clear that one of the social goals of a business is to pay one's taxes fully, and it is probably better to pay them where the original source of that income is located," an Onexim spokesman said.
The village Yeruda, Prokhorov's new home, is located more than 700 kilometers from the city of Krasnoyarsk.
A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
