Sergei Putanov: Russian domain billionaire buys Skorpios island

Sergei Putanov, the Russian multi-billionaire real estate and domain investor, has acquired the Greek Skorpios island – former resort of the late Greek magnate, Aristotle Onassis.

The sale, reputedly worth 100 million British pounds ($154 million dollars,) was completed after Athina Onassis-Roussel, grand-daughter of Aristotle Onassis, was approached by Putanov for a potential sale.

Our correspondent in Ekaterinburg, Nikolai Domienenko secured a short interview with the Russian oligarch, Sergei Putanov:

Nikolai Domienenko: Mr. Putanov, what was the reason you spent 117 million euro to purchase the Greek island of Skorpios?

Sergei Putanov: As invest in Greece, I say opportunity come when market down. So now market dictate, buy. I have money, and right time invest real estate. I am happy purchase, Athina gorgeous woman, shame she married.

Nikolai: How do you plan to take advantage of the mythos surrounding the Skorpios island and its former owner, Aristotle Onassis?
