		Speaking fairly, Deripaska did not accumulate his most valuable assets through rigging privatization of state assets, at least not if his acquisition of the alumna refinery at Nikolaev is excluded, because it is across the border in the Ukraine.
		Deripaska’s prime asset, and the source of most of his cash, is Rusal, which after Alcoa, is the largest producer of primary aluminum in the world.
		On the scale of demonstrable threats to the economic security of the state, Deripaska ought to be trying to convince his detractors, inside the Kremlin and out, that Basic Element and Rusal are not to be compared with the Yukos group, Sibneft and Millhouse, or Interros and Norilsk Nickel.

		Like Vekselberg, Deripaska is exposed to the conclusion of the chief Russian policymaker that everyone would be better off if their aluminium assets were consolidated under control that was invulnerable to offshore supply manipulation, paid taxes, and complied with the law.
		Deripaska produces aluminium metal in Russian smelters, but as his former spokesman, Yevgenia Harrison once admitted, most of the value (read profit) in Rusal is earned offshore.

		Deripaska's televised meeting with President Vladimir Putin in Sochi has made some members of media and spin doctors believe this is a possibility.
		Deripaska, head of the vast industrial holding Basic Element and a partner of fellow oligarch Roman Abramovich, is Russia's fifth richest man. Quickly sensing the paradigm shift in state-business relations when the Yukos affair started in 2003, media-shy Deripaska has since been seen as a Kremlin loyalist, and has focused on building his business empire.
		Belkovsky, quoted in The Moscow Times, said "[Deripaska] has immense political ambitions," adding, "His inner circle has been preparing him to become president of Russia." Belkovsky foresees a scenario in which Krasnodar Governor Alexander Tkachyov is anointed as Putin's successor ahead of the 2008 poll and Deripaska named as his prime minister.
