Prosecutor General Ivan Geshev has asked the Minister of Justice to propose to the President to revoke the Bulgarian citizenship of a Russian national. The citizenship was granted to him by naturalization in exchange for investment.
Sources told Bulgaria's public broadcaster BNT that the Russian in question was Igor Finogenov, a former director of the Eurasian Development Bank. He is a Kremlin insider, as evidenced by his photos with former Russian President and Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev. He also worked with Sergei Nikolashin, a diplomat in Sofia who was expelled from Bulgaria in 2020 on charges of being a Russian spy.
The state Prosecutor's Office specified that Igor Finogenov had breached the procedure for acquiring Bulgarian citizenship.
