Jan. 27 (Bloomberg) — Russia will submit to parliament a bill that limits foreign ownership in strategic industries, such as oil, gas, metals and defense, in the “coming months,” Russia’s First Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev said today.
The bill will be “clear, fully balanced and answer all questions that arise in daily practice,” Medvedev said in a speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos today. “The worst thing in business is opacity and unpredictability.”
President Vladimir Putin in May 2005 ordered the government to draft legislation spelling out restrictions on foreign ownership in industries that relate to state security, such as infrastructure, defense, the so-called natural monopolies of power and natural gas and strategic mineral resource deposits.
Russia has tightened its grip on its natural resource wealth, which underpins the country’s economy. Last month, Royal Dutch Shell Plc and its partners agreed to sell a majority stake in the Sakhalin-2 oil and gas project in the Russian Far East to state-controlled OAO Gazprom. Sakhalin was the only major oil and gas project fully owned by foreign investors.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
