Vladimir Putin transferred the Russian business of the tobacco group Japan Tobacco Inc to the temporary management of an industrial property company. We are talking about the companies J.T.I. Donskoy Tobacco", "J.T.I. Yult", "Kers Neva" and "Petro", which own tobacco factories in Rostov-on-Don, Yult and St. Petersburg. Before the transfer, the shares were owned by the Dutch structures of JTI and the Russian companies of the group.
