Vladimir Gusinsky
Vladimir Gusinsky is a prominent Russian media tycoon known for his pivotal role in the Russian media landscape during the 1990s. As the founder of the influential media group Media-Most, he was one of the first oligarchs to emerge after the fall of the Soviet Union. Gusinsky was a vocal supporter of press freedom, which put him at odds with the Kremlin, particularly during the presidency of Vladimir Putin. His criticism of government policies and his ownership of independent media outlets led to significant legal challenges and his eventual exile from Russia. Despite his controversial past and tumultuous relationship with the state, Gusinsky's impact on Russian media and politics remains notable.
