Since 2013, Gazprom has rented a villa on the Museumplein in Amsterdam from Zadelhoff bv, the real estate company of Cor van Zadelhoff. Six months ago, Van Zadelhoff received a lease notice. “They canceled the lease, changed their name to Gazfin and left for Cyprus,” said the well-known real estate entrepreneur. So this happened half a year before the Russians invaded Ukraine. “This could indicate that they have had a certain premonition,” says Van Zadelhoff.
