Million on crabs
The federal center took away most of Sakhalin's income. In
violation of previous agreements and without regard for the interests
of the region, the region is deprived of 68 billion rubles from the
Sakhalin-2 oil and gas project. Sakhalin
authorities recently said that they managed to get a concession from the
federal center and the terms for the redistribution of taxes will be
revised. But this is not true: in fact, Moscow takes billions almost without any compensation.
