M. Khodorkovsky blames Putin in the disposal of assets from the country

BP agreed to exchange $7.8 billion of stock for 9.5 percent of Rosneft, Russia’s largest oil producer after aquiring Yukos assets in 2007.

Ex-owner of Yukos company Mikhail Khodorkovsky has called the charges against him retribution for political opposition to President Vladimir Putin.

 Is no longer a secret the identity of co-owner of Gunvor, the main exporter of Rosneft, Gennady Timchenko. He is a close friend of Putin.

The operation of special services of Russia to withdraw assets from the country has successfully passed the next round, with a deal between Rosneft and BP.
