23 Details About Putin's Secret Palace On The Coast of The Black Sea

Deadbeat_Dave Published 03/03/2023 in wtf

It has long been rumored that Vladimir Putin may -- secretly -- be the richest man in the world -- richer than Bezos, Musk, Gates or any of the other perennial top dogs on the lists of super-billionaires. As the head of one of the world's superpowers notorious for corruption among its upper ranks with eleven time-zones' worth of natural gas and other resources and almost zero transparency for how that immense wealth is dispersed, many have speculated that Putin may be something of a mega-uber-super-ultra wealthy capone, enjoying nigh-infinite luxury with very few assets actually in his name.

One such asset rumored to belong to Russia's deeply controversial president is a veritable palace on the coast of the Black Sea. Russian Opposition Leader Alexei Navalny, who survived poisoning by a nerve agent before being thrown into Russian prison, released a documentary with his Russian anti-corruption team that looked into the suspected wealth of the Russian president and discovered this palace, hidden in the seaside forests of Gelendzhik, Krasnodar Krai in Western Russia, that makes anything Bezos or Musk owns look like a humble suburban townhouse.
