Abramovich suddenly appeared in Russia, and even without disguise. Within 5 hours, he caused long-term losses for several years.

Oligarch Abramovich arrived in Yekaterinburg on a private plane worth tens of millions of dollars. Monitoring platforms recorded his sudden arrival. Subsequently, relevant images also appeared online. Informants revealed the purpose of his visit, which seemed more like "cutting off one's own foot to spite one's shoe" - within 5 hours, he caused losses for several years.

According to data from Flightradar24, an Airbus A319 private jet landed at Koltsovo Airport in Yekaterinburg around 16:30 on April 19. It was previously reported that this plane belonged to oligarch Roman Abramovich.

It is said that by 19:00, Abramovich had already watched the play "B.R." about poet Boris Ryzhy at the Sverdlovsk Film Studio, accompanied by Yeltsin's daughter Tatiana Yumasheva and her husband Valentin, who was the head of the presidential office during Yeltsin's era. Before watching the play, he took time to visit the Yeltsin Center. The Telegram channel "Yekaterinburg News | URA.RU" released photos of Abramovich at the scene of the play.

After the play ended, around 21:30, Abramovich left the city.

As early as 2019, Forbes reported that the Airbus A319 belonged to Abramovich. At the same time, the media also mentioned that billionaire Abramov, a shareholder of "Evraz", who also holds shares in the company where Abramovich is involved, owns the same aircraft. The interior of the Airbus A319 has a bedroom, shower room, comfortable sofa, dining area, and TV.

Informants revealed that during Abramovich's sudden visit to Yekaterinburg, he agreed to provide financial support for the operation of the Yeltsin Center from 2025 to 2027. This message was transmitted by the "INSIDER-T" channel under the network of another fugitive oligarch Mikhail Khodorkovsky. The source stated that the funding issue of the Yeltsin Center became the main topic for Abramovich's personal invitation to visit the Urals capital, as the state obviously refused to provide funding for this liberal talent cultivation base, and evidently, local lobbyists were powerless:

They (the Yumashev couple) requested (Abramovich) to fund the operation of the Yeltsin Center, as the state clearly does not plan to spend billions of budget funds on this institution in the context of the special military operation. Abramovich showed great interest in this proposal, but he required detailed development plans for the Yeltsin Center to understand whether this was merely a charitable act or if he could eventually recover some funds. After studying the relevant documents, he agreed to provide 2 to 3 billion rubles in unconditional support and an additional 1 billion rubles in grants. With these funds, the Yeltsin Center can operate stably until 2027.
