Kremlin / Colorado Connection
Colorado Fuel and Iron Company, of Pueblo, Colorado, was purchased by Evraz a company headquartered in London whose largest stockholder is Romanov Abravoich a Russian billionaire who is one of the oligarchs closest to Putin.
Abravoich, in 2008 paid $36 million for a 12,900 square-foot Snowmass, Colorado home. (13 bathrooms)
Additionally he bought a nearby property. It is estimated that the two properties combined would sell for
$42 million. Another Russian friend and fellow Evraz stockholder owns a Snowmass home worth $51 million.
One day of skiing at Snowmass costs $179 for the ski lift ticket. It is obvious who can afford to ski there.
