About Vadim Novinsky
Vadim Novinsky owns Ukraine's Smart Holding Group, which has a 24% stake in Rinat Akhmetov's iron ore producer Metinvest.
Novinsky started working in Ukraine in the mid 1990s with Russian oil producer Lukoil, then began buying Ukrainian metallurgy companies.
The Russian native got his Ukrainian citizenship in 2012; he has been a member of parliament since 2013.
Long seen as one of Ukraine's most Putin-friendly billionaires, he tried to jump-start negotiations with Russia before the invasion.
He visited Mariupol with Akhmetov in February 2022 and briefly returned to Kyiv but apparently took off hours before the invasion; he is now suspected to be in Estonia.
