Who Were The Oligarchs Who Plundered Russia?

- In the 1990s a handful of men benefited from the chaos and corruption of the fall of the Soviet Union by acquiring massive amounts of wealth and formerly state owned resources. These were the Russian oligarchs.
In 1996 oligarch Boris Berezovsky identified the Semibankirschina or 7 bankers who were effectively running Russia by that time. This video explains who they were, how they acquired so much power and what was ultimately the undoing of their kleptocratic rule of Russia.

As a Russian, I am favorably impressed by the accuracy and attention to details in this video. Great job, Keith! You've been able to correctly identify all the culprits and their main activities.
Right? There's the "pravda" of these events and changes, and the "iztina". At the core is the apparent desperation of the system already in conflict with itself. The new idea, behind the new faces and the new policies, went further than what had been Lenin's "tactical liberalization" of the NEP. If the new faces had been honest, they would have called their boldest moves "Post-Soviet National Neoliberalism"... but honesty was never a fundamental value of the Soviet system, especially in the period discussed where there were big changes in the internal composition of WHO actually had the key positions in the functioning parts of the state. All the ideoligical language about commitment to socialism became openly hollow and residual, a pose. I suppose we could consider this shift in the Oligarchial 90s as "Officially National" in scope and pretension perhaps, but not nationalist in the most essential sense. Better than nothing it could conceivably be argued, but never a open call for the unification and conscious self-rule of White native Russian Slavs in a very effective or direct sense. Neoliberal? In PRACTICE, absolutely. WHO cashed in on the systems elements of self-indulged instability, the big money that travelled, and TO WHOM, the effect of recapitalization and financialization within the rapidly mutating economy... this was, we should remember, occurring in a different way with the American system as well... it all obviously points to the presence and resurgence of JEWRY, but also the spread of the post-war myth of global capitalism as guarantee of national affluence and strength. Now that the Cold War was losing steam from a shared internationalism detached from any older style sense of ideological MISSION, capitalist and "evolving socialist" countries could claim to both pursue traditional liberal goals without much contradiction, despite the reality behind this mythic prosperity being a rather hollow claim.
Revisionist Marxist critics looked beyond the superficial statistical level of money changing hands quickly, and they correctly noticed despite this frenzied intra-market activity little was getting produced to meet human needs of consumers. Despite the big profits and social mobility, there was no "miracle" of capital benefiting the Russian PEOPLE the way the German or Scandinavian mixed systems were claimed to have benefited the national communities of those states. The value of real "living wages" went down for Russia, fuel prices and effects of engineered scarcity or monopolization hit the "liberated" Russian consumer where the managed austerity of the post-WWII era or familiar element of state oversight had formerly given an image or sense of security to the common Soviet citizen. Not much exaggeration is needed in describing the negatives that the new conditions meant for him. The proof showed itself in the explosion of malnutrition, actual deaths of hunger, neglect of the orphaned or aged, prostitution, drug addiction and alcoholism, alienation and sense of abandonment, despair in the ability of the government OR markets to fix the everyday problems which were showing just how insufficient the IRL benefits of what followed "reform" really were.
Keith tackles this part of contemporary history in a fair way that aims to let the structure be judged by its architects and the experimentation by its results.
Im also russian and its so hard to find the real truth about what really happened during the ussr and onward, thanks for laying out a clear description Keith
Hail Mother Russia
As a Georgian who grew up in Russia during late Yelstsin-early Putin years and also had the same troubles back in my country, watching this I was amazed at how accurate and insightful this distant Irishman's research is on our dark and shrouded post-Soviet reality. Keith's channel is a gem on this otherwise poisonous platform!
Is this common knowledge in Russia? Or even relatively known?
Hell yeah I’m curious to see how you got around without naming them lmao
lol
Great video Keith, it was an interesting look into how things have gotten to where they are now.
Give or take ten years we will develop telepathy to communicate that with each other.

Ahaah lol😂
naming the oligarchs is anti-semitic
They all have a "Wikipedia Early Life" section in common.
Just another strange coincidence like all the thousand other ones lol
Purely a coincidence.
@@SuperCulverincohencidence
When you see those causing trouble and strife, just go to Wikipedia and check “Early Life”!
Absolutely disgusting what they did, we will never forget or forgive.
I remember watching a documentary back in the 90s of Russian orphans lining up to have their tonsils taken out without anaesthetic because it was too expensive. They were literally cutting the tonsils out of the back of the kids throats. Stuck with me all these years every time I see a fat Russian oligarch at a football match.
They are doing it to the entire world barring china right now. We have a few months before the collapse accelerates beyond redemption

Vote in PCP, the only (probably also BE, but these are just a bunch of progressits) ones that would never allowed this and other oligarchs to do this things to the country.
@@GuilhermePereira-vi6vc PCP and BE are both faux dissedents who go on with what PS says. We, dissedents, should form our own party or at least hold conferences (like Geração 70 did; but instead of being pro democracy, the opposite). Also what «Gajo Tuga» said. I'm glad to see other Lusos around here!
@@IDFFereira como és português não vale a pena responder em inglês, dá mais trabalho aos dois.
O PCP não é o bloco de esquerda. Esses sim é minimamente justificado acusa los disso. Ao contrário do bloco de esquerda, que são um monte de trostkistas e progressistas (hoje em dia parece que nem o trostkismo sobrou, só mesmo o progressismo), o PCP ainda segue a tradição marxista original desde os primeiros partidos comunistas da Europa. E se formos ver, durante a guerra fria a maioria dos partidos comunistas nem sequer era lá muito amigo de imigração vinda de África, por exemplo, por ser basicamente uma importação de mão barata para o país das ex colonias, apenas benéfico para a classe capitalista e que quem acaba por sofrer com as consequências é a classe trabalhadora. Não sei Muito bem qual é a opinião especifica do PCP sobre imigração de africanos, mas de certeza que se fossem eles que estivessem no poder não haveria nenhuma imigração em massa vinda de África ou do Brasil
@@miguelafonso4466 primeiro, só para avisar que, bem, a expressão ''we, dissedents'' não se aplica a mim haha. Eu sou um marxista.
Segundo, o PCP não é assim tanto o fantochinho do PS. Basta olhar para o ano de 1974 e 1975, e ver quem era o maior opositor ao PCP e à continuação da revolução de 25 de Abril em direção ao socialismo, em vez de parar pela democracia burguesa. Era o PS. A única vez que o PCP colaborou assim tanto com o PS foi durante a geringonça, mas ao longo da história o que acontece realmente não é o PCP ser o cãozinho do PS, é mais o PS e o PSD que são namorados um do outro.
@Guilherme Pereira Eu, por não crer que a História tem um Telos, na "Síntese final" histórica, na explicação que condições materiais são a base de tudo, e outros dizeres Marxistas-Leninistas, não me posso considerar comunista. Vejo-o como um absoluto oposto a tudo aquilo que é sagrado (não falo de uma perspectiva cristã). Feita esta asserção, o verdadeiro comunista não pode trabalhar dentro dos axiomas demo-liberais; assim sendo, o PCP não pode ser o verdadeiro representante do pensamento comunista já que opera dentro dos mencionados axiomas. De qualquer forma, não se pode olhar para '74, quando o PCP continua a fazer concessões atrás de concessões no parlamento a outros partidos. Concordo plenamente no que consta das relações entre PS e PSD: faz lembrar o sistema rotativo da Regeneração.
They also destroyed Russian nationalistic movement
Weird. Who would have guessed they were behind that
@Chief Sunna of the Saxons just say jews. Its easier
@Chief Sunna of the Saxons😐
In the 1970s and 1980s, they moved to the conservative side and became the “neoconservatives”. In the 2020s I predict we will see them go to the nationalist side.
Roman Abramovich, the owner of Chelsea is also one of them
Oh there are many
Yes, he's mentioned in the video.
@Dravatis At least few other clubs are also owned by them (not specifically russian jews, but still jews). Tottenham for sure.
@@pingpong1656 ManU
In the US, many of the professional sport teams are owned by them. Many of the league chairmen are as well.
I always wondered how mid-level technocrats and nobodies of a “persecuted minority” had come to control the majority of the state assets. Great job!
You only slightly covered the results of the "reforms". It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that what we endured in the 90's can be equated with a genocide. Nevertheless, a great video. From Russia with gratitude.
The average age of death for Russian men reached third world levels in the 1990s, men died at an average age of 57 in late 90s Russia.
Are you having 5+ kids for the white race?
One thing he didn't mention, but I feel should have, was that the US made a specific policy of allowing jews in Russia refugee status. Having destroyed Russia, they allowed their co-ethnics safe harbor to the US to avoid the consequences of their treachory. It's actually amazing the audacity.
@@millevenon5853 well, I intend to have 5-7.

Unfortunately, the "oligarchs“ were only partially removed. They still have a huge amount of influence there!
They own us still
Putin simply consolidated the power to less oligarchs hands. He is still buddy buddy with Abramovich.

Jeffrey Sachs was a busy man in the 90s. When researching marketisation in Poland and Yugoslavia for a Uni essay his name kept popping up.
@Alex If I remember correctly he was an advisor to Solidarity and actually helped formulate the reforms put forward by Balcerowicz. But yeah you’re right that oligarchy didn’t take total hold in Poland like it did it Russia. Sachs and co faced more opposition in Poland.
What’s his connection to Yugoslavia?
@@grandmastersreaction1267 Advisor to post communist Slovenia and was involved in Yugoslav government in 89/90.
@Alex kek wut
Chosenites and western investors taken complete control over our economy in the 90s and it largely still continues to this day
The Oligarch is immunized against all dangers: one may call him a scoundrel, parasite, swindler, profiteer, it all runs off him like water off a raincoat. But call him a member of the tribe and you will be astonished at how he recoils, how injured he is, how he suddenly shrinks back: “I’ve been found out.”

Good job, Keith. In the future it would be good to dig into how the :"Harvard Boys" also were instrumental in the writing of the Russian Federation's constitution and in doing so set up so many protections for the oligarchs---and themselves.
Also the notion that the CIA was "taken by total surprise" that the Soviet economy was imploding when in actuality the agency had been instrumental in its undermining AND responsible with Saudi Arabia for the Chechen and other Muslim republics' turmoil and guerilla/urban terrorism of the 90s and early years of Putin's tenure.
Putin is no savior he is an anti white communist kgb agent
"russian oligarch" is a great euphemism.

Should be a great video- interesting subject.
Second time I watched this video, the topic is exactly covering my knowledge gap on 90s and early 2000s Russia. It cleared many things up to me, thank you.
For me, a similar video about the lead up to and the early phases of communist China would also be much appreciated.
To be fair no one had enough money to buy the companies of a huge fallen empire at the price that it was worth when just a few years ago everyone pretty much got the same tiny wage, and the ones who didn't usually got their luxuries as services from the government they were in favor and/or control of, not in capital. The problem was the system, shock therapy, that let these people get all this power, which they themselves probably made sure was enacted.
