Russian billionaire Oleg Tinkov slams ‘crazy war’ in Ukraine

A Russian billionaire sanctioned by the West over the Ukraine war has denounced Moscow’s “massacre” in its neighbouring country and urged the West to help end this “crazy” conflict.

Oleg Tinkov, who founded Tinkoff Bank, Russia’s biggest credit card issuer, claimed online on Tuesday that 90 percent of his countrymen were against President Vladimir Putin’s decision to invade Ukraine, offering some of the strongest criticism against the war by a Russian tycoon yet.
