BUT IT’S JUST A FACTORY

American investors have bought a Russian porcelain factory, but encountered resistance when they went to take control of it. “The struggle for control of the Lomonosov porcelain factory has all the elements of Russia’s own national struggle. It is a tale of Russians against foreigners, socialism against capitalism, the Kremlin against private investors, alleged Russian crooks against brazen interlopers – with a priceless imperial treasure as the prize.” The Globe and Mail (Canada)
