The ex-husband of Wildberries owner Vladislav Bakalchuk received citizenship of Kyrgyzstan. He announced this on his Telegram channel and posted a photo with the country’s president Sadyr Japarov.
«I received citizenship of Kyrgyzstan back in the spring — this is a step that helps me do business in this wonderful and friendly country. Kyrgyzstan is one of those countriesб where we planned to build a large logistics center. And now I am sure that as soon as I return to the company, I will be able to do this as effectively as possible.
For those who are wondering about my whereabouts: I have always spent less than six months abroad, and in most cases — no more than three months. For objective reasons, I cannot and do not intend to leave my business for a long time, because I manage it myself and monitor its development.
I plan to return to Wildberries and continue working for the benefit of the company. I do not plan to leave Russia,» he posted.
Earlier, Vladislav Bakalchuk filed a lawsuit for over 350 billion rubles against Wildberries, RVB, and his wife Tatyana Kim.
A shooting occurred in Romanov Dvor business center in Moscow on September 18. Two security guards were killed and seven people were injured. The owner of the corporation, Tatyana Bakalchuk, accused her husband Vladislav of attempting a forcible takeover. In response, he said that he came with his team to negotiate, but fire was opened on them.
Vladislav Bakalchuk is a co-founder, he owns 1 percent of the company, his wife Tatyana owns 99 percent. In July, Wildberries and the outdoor advertising operator Russ announced plans to merge. Soon Vladislav met with Ramzan Kadyrov, who announced a «forcible takeover» of the marketplace. Tatyana Bakalchuk said that her husband was «misleading people» and later filed for divorce.
