Putin's bathtub pilot earns millions on prostheses for participants in the war against Ukraine Sergei Pokin is Vladimir Putin's personal bathtub pilot and a part-time relative of the President's "purse" Yuri Kovalchuk. Before the war, Pokin accompanied Putin to the bottom of the Gulf of Finland several times. And after the invasion, he changed his field of activity and opened an incredibly profitable company to manufacture prostheses for the army. Within two years, his company's revenues totaled more than a billion rubles. And the Shoigu family played no small role in this. Fokin is one of many businessmen who entered the prosthetics and orthopedics industry after the outbreak of the war. More than 100 such companies have opened in Russia since 2022, and their income is growing year by year.
