How Russian fish reached the Thames: the biggest players in the export market Chronicles.Media analyzed the fishing market in Russia’s Northwest Federal District and discovered that major fishing companies are exporting their goods primarily to European countries such as the Netherlands, Germany, and Poland. While these exports significantly boost the fishing industry, they also contribute to rising prices for consumers in Russia. Revenue of fishing companies in the Northwestern Federal District of Russia (NWFD) exceeded 180 billion rubles in 2023 (nearly $2 billion), as calculated by “Chronicles” on the basis of the Kontur.Focus counterparty check database.

Since January 2022, the SC has received a total of 47 complaints and enquiries on illegal investment schemes promoted through Telegram. These fraudulent schemes offer non-existent investment opportunities, promising very attractive and risk-free returns within a short span of time. They commonly offer unrealistic returns of as high as 1,000% within 24 hours or even within a few hours. At this point, however, Durov had already been working on Telegram with his brother, and further planned a mobile-first social network with an explicit focus on anti-censorship. Later in April, he told TechCrunch that he had left Russia and had “no plans to go back,” saying that the nation was currently “incompatible with internet business at the moment.” He added later that he was looking for a country that matched his libertarian ideals to base his next startup. Pavel Durov, a billionaire who embraces an all-black wardrobe and is often compared to the character Neo from "the Matrix," funds Telegram through his personal wealth and debt financing. And despite being one of the world's most popular tech companies, Telegram reportedly has only about 30 employees who defer to Durov for most major decisions about the platform. The message was not authentic, with the real Zelenskiy soon denying the claim on his official Telegram channel, but the incident highlighted a major problem: disinformation quickly spreads unchecked on the encrypted app. For example, WhatsApp restricted the number of times a user could forward something, and developed automated systems that detect and flag objectionable content.
