Khoroshkovsky was forced to resign in January 2004, claiming about his Finance Ministry was preventing his Economic Ministry from drawing up long-term economic plans.
After Khoroshkovsky’s resignation as Economics Minister in January 2004 he was appointed vice president of steel giant Evraz, becoming its head in April 2006 either because of his connections or his 13-year friendship with Alexander Abramov.

Inter Media Group Ltd with various other channels bought from Dmytro Firtash.
