(ANSA) – LONATO DEL GARDA, APRIL 22 – The oligarch Vladimir Lisin, according to ‘Forbes’ the richest man in Russia, ‘king of steel’ and personal friend of President Vladimir Putin, has arrived in Lonato del Garda, where the ‘stage’ of the Skeet Shooting World Cup is underway. His presence at the Tav Concaverde is not accidental, in fact Lisin, despite the countless requests for his resignation (lastly, yesterday, that of the Australian government through the mouth of the Minister of Sport Richard Colbeck) or the IOC to be relieved of his office, continues to be the president of Issf, the world body of shooting sports (target and flying).
But the criticisms and comments slip on him, including the fact that in many countries (such as Norway, Sweden, the US and Australia) he has been declared an “unwelcome person”.
Moreover, Lisin has not so far been affected by sanctions and prohibitions against all the other businessmen and executives of her country, and travels in possession of a diplomatic passport from San Marino. So he has no intention of leaving the post, and indeed has made it known that he wants to reapply.
“We could not stop him from coming, it is not up to us to decide”, the comment that filters from the Tav in Lonato, an avant-garde facility in the world of shooting that has hosted various editions of the World and European Championships. (HANDLE).
