In June, the adviser to the head of the United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) Alyoshin was put on the EU sanctions list because of Russia’s war against Ukraine.

In the summer of 2020, Alyoshin submitted an application for approval of the purchase of land in Finland to the Ministry of Defense of Finland, in accordance with local legislation. The application stated that the businessman spent his vacations in these places, where he liked to mainly go fishing, writes YLE.
