Businessman Roman Trotsenko sold 69 percent of his shares in “AEON Infrastructure Corporation”, the company told RBC.
36 percent of Trotsenko’s shares were bought by the general director of the corporation, Dmitry Mironenko, and 33 percent by the head of one of the holding’s divisions, Alexander Orekhov. It is he who will assume the position of the chairman of the board of directors of AEON.
After the transaction, Trotsenko’s share in the company is 31 percent, he will leave the company’s board of directors.

Let’s remind that Roman Trotsenko’s GeoProMining mining group acquired 60% of Zangezur copper-molybdenum combine in Armenia.
2021 on September 30, it became known that ZMPK has a new shareholder in the form of Roman Trotsenko, a pro-Kremlin Russian billionaire with a dubious biography. It turned out that the latter’s “Industrial Company” joint-stock company acquired 60% of the shares of Zangezur Copper-Molybdenum Combine (ZPMK), the number one taxpayer of Armenia, and hastened to donate 15% of the total capital to the RA government. The reason and conditions are not known to this day, at least no official explanation has been given as to how RA’s number one taxpayer ended up with the billionaire close to the Kremlin and why he gave the shares to Pashinyan’s government.
It should also be noted that the US State Department expanded the range of sanctions against Russia, including new businessmen, including Trotsenko. This is stated in the main documents of the State Department, TASS reports.
The State Department has blacklisted him because of his work or past work in the technology industry in the Russian Federation. In addition, the State Department listed a network of personal assets and investment vehicles used by the Trotsenko family. The documents state that the Trotsenko family is close to Russian President Vladimir Putin.
