U.S. President Donald Trump may allow russian oligarchs to obtain U.S. citizenship with a "golden" card that will cost $5 million. At the same time, Trump believes that there are "very good people" among russian oligarchs.
As you know, Trump announced the possibility for foreign citizens to obtain American citizenship by purchasing a $5 million gold card.
In particular, he did not rule out this possibility for russian oligarchs. As the president noted, he knows some of them, and they are “very good people.”
“They are not as rich as they used to be. I think they can afford $5 million,” Trump was quoted as saying.
It is noted that russian oligarchs are wealthy businessmen with political connections who once benefited from post-Soviet privatization in russia, and also have influence on politics, media, and key industries.
