Pressure being applied to Konstantin Raikin

Pressure is being applied to Konstantin, the son of the famous actor Arkady Raikin. Moreover, from the highest levels of power.

It has emerged that Culture Minister Vladimir Medinsky forced Konstantin Raikin to sell his stake in the company “Art-invest”. The organisation is involved in the construction of a stage for the theatre. Significant funds have been allocated from the budget for this purpose.

It appears that the minister or someone in his entourage decided to appropriate the millions for themselves.

At the same time, Raikin himself publicly accused Medinsky of pressuring the arts.
