Hoe Bauke Mollema De Tour Wint glazen bol //// Thijs Zonneveld Hoe Bauke Mollema de Tour wint seconden na meer dan 3000 beeld van Contador, zwalkend in kilometer koers: het is niks, maar de gele trui, met Oleg Tinkov het is genoeg.

Vóór deze Tour geloofde niemand in een zege van Mollema. Hij zou Maar de Tour de France van dit hooguit goed zijn voor een zesde of jaar was meer dan een race van zevende plaats. Achter Froome, The Last Man Standing. Daarmee achter Contador, achter Nibali, zou je Mollema tekort doen. Nee, achter Quintana, achter Pinot en hij was niet de beste klimmer. En Bardet en Perraud. En misschien ook niet de beste tijdrijder. Niet één zelfs nog wel achter Kreuziger, etappe eindigde hij bij de beste MARK REIJNTJENS Fuglsang en Van Garderen. drie. Maar het liep anders. Maar dat hoefde ook niet. Mollema schraapte zijn Tour-zege bij elkaar De Tour van 2015 is er eentje die door het hoofd te buigen, de rug te het best is te omschrijven met één krommen en voort te doen. Want woord: chaos. Vanaf de start in dit was een Tour voor overlevers. Utrecht tot aan de dag voor Parijs Het draaide om aanklampen, dag liep vrijwel geen etappe volgens na dag na dag. En laat dat bij verwachting.

Eigenlijk realiseerde Quintana zich © AD zaterdag 27 juni 2015 Pagina 29 (1) pas dat Mollema zijn grootste concurrent was in rit 19, na de ineenstorting van Contador. En toen was het al te laat. En dus rijdt Mollema vandaag in het geel tegen de Nederlandse berg op. Als je dat van tevoren in een fictief artikel gelezen zou hebben, zou je het flauw gevonden hebben - zo'n cliché is het. Maar clichés zijn niet voor niets clichés: ze gebeuren vaker dan je wilt geloven. In de 13 kilometers naar de top van Alpe d'Huez doet Mollema wat hij moet doen: hij laat Quintana gaan bij diens aanval in de eerste de beste bocht en beperkt daarna de schade. Als een scharrelende kip rijdt Mollema naar boven: hij pikt links en rechts secondes, de snavel altijd gericht naar de grond. Hij slingert, hij schokschoudert, hij duwt, hij trekt, hij sleurt, hij snottert zich een slijmbaard. En hij buigt zijn hoofd diep, zo diep dat zijn tong in zijn voorwiel hangt. Maar hoe diep hij deze Tour ook boog - hij brak niet één keer. © AD zaterdag 27 juni 2015 Pagina 29 (2).

Russian M&A review 2017 3 Overview Although deal activity increased by 13% in 2017, the value of Russian M&A Deal was 12% lower than the previous activity 13% year, at USD66.9 billion, mainly due to an absence of larger deals. This was in particular reflected in the oil and gas sector, which in 2016 was characterised by three large deals with a combined value exceeding USD28 billion. The good news is that investors have adjusted to the realities of sanctions and lower oil prices, and sought opportunities brought by both the economic recovery and governmental efforts to create a new industrial strategy. 2017 saw a significant rise in the number and value of deals outside the Deal more traditional extractive industries value 37% and utility sectors, which have historically driven Russian M&A. Oil and gas sector is excluded If the oil and gas sector is excluded, then the value of deals rose by 37%, from USD35.5 billion in 2016 to USD48.5 billion in 2017.

He stated that there was natural demand for foreign securities derivatives, but how and in which form it would be done, was a bit early to say, because it would depend on the readiness of the participants. He mentioned that this is going to be a priority for the next year. Legislation Government approves ratification of Luxembourg tax deal On December 14, 2020 it was reported that the Russian government approved ratification of an agreement on double taxation avoidance with Luxembourg. In March, Russian President Vladimir Putin suggested imposing a 15% tax on dividend yields withdrawn to the accounts in foreign jurisdictions, which needs adjustments to the agreements on avoidance of double taxation with other countries. Russia will cancel such agreements unilaterally if consensus is not reached. The Finance Ministry sent notifications to Cyprus first, and then to Luxembourg, Malta, and the Netherlands. Amendments to the accord with Cyprus have already been made, and the government coordinated them with Malta and Luxembourg. But negotiations with the Netherlands are difficult, Finance Minister Anton Siluanov said earlier. The Finance Ministry also launched a procedure to denounce the double taxation accord with the Netherlands. Company News Altus now says to buy only 25% in Detsky Mir On December 11, 2020 it was reported that investment company Altus Capital lowered the number of shares it was ready to buy in children goods retailer Detsky Mir to 25% from 29.9% due to the new procedure of accepting bids and settlements.
