<\/p>\n

Senior public officials of Russian Tatarstan and related business colonized Crimean Foros. Corrupted clans of \u00abKazan people\u00bb buy lands and destroy the famous park-monument by their buildings. Families of Shaimiev, ex-President of the Republic of Tatarstan, Ravil Muratov, ex-Vice-Prime-Minister and Advisor of the current President of Tatarstan, Asgat Safarov, ex-Minister of Internal Affairs and the head of the Office of the President of Tatarstan and other public officials have luxury dachas in Foros.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The connection with JSC \u00abTatneft\u00bb can be found in the privatization of \u00abForos\u00bb sanatorium stolen from Ukraine as well as in the illegal construction on its territory. Though, \u00abTatneft\u00bb stubbornly denies any relations with these illegal operations as it is afraid of possible Western sanctions.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Center for Journalist Investigations<\/a> uncovered connections between Foros land buyers and developers and \u00abTatneft\u00bb company. We tell the story of how Ukrainian corruption laid the ground for the Russian corruption brought in to Crimea by the occupation army. Today Russian corrupted clans implement the colonization policy on the occupied territory.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Foros Park is one of the most beautiful and famous places in Crimea. It has been founded in 1834 at General Raievskii\u2019s estate. In fifty years it has been bought by Alexander Kuznetsov, a Russian \u00abtea king\u00bb. He re-planned the Park and planted trees and herbs from Europe, America and Asia. More than 200 forms and types of relict trees and bushes grow in the Park with the total area of 70 hectares. However, today the Park is under serious threat. Full-scale reconstruction and destruction of dozens of old, exotic and relict trees caused protests by Foros and Yalta inhabitants.<\/p>\n

The historical monument of the landscape gardening is eradicated by corrupted clans of Russian Tatarstan. They have no respect towards the park, as it is their military trophy.<\/p>\n
