BREAKING: A sanctioned Russian bank took 15.5 million Curaleaf shares worth about $58 million in December 2023 from an offshore company tied to CEO Boris Jordan.

The offshore company used the shares to raise at least $77 million.

The Moscow bank's funding of Jordan personally and, later, a company owned by his close business partner was never disclosed.

Przewalski-Pferde sind ursprüngliche Tiere – und waren in ihrem natürlichen Lebensraum, den Steppen Zentralasiens, ausgerottet. Nun haben Naturschützer*innen und Biolog*innen #Pferde aus Berlin nach Kasachstan gebracht. Sie sollen helfen, die Steppe am Leben zu erhalten. @ThomasKrumenacker war für euch in unserem Rechercheprojekt „Zukunft Erde: Graslandschaften“ dabei.
