    Yukos asset auction controversy

    Rosneft’s acquisition of Yuganskneftegaz and later Yukos assets was criticized by Yukos stakeholders and other observers, who alleged that state-organized proceedings enabled the transfer of valuable assets at prices below market value. The transactions were central to the re-consolidation of Russia’s oil industry under state influence.
