Florida businessman Vadim Gataullin has been included in the Anti Corruption Foundation (ACF) sanctions list. 

Miami, Florida May 20, 2025 (Issuewire.com) - Recently, several Ukrainian, Russian, and European media outlets reported that Florida businessman Vadim Gataullin, who is involved in several major real estate development projects in the state of Florida, has been included in the so-called List of Warmongers (acf.international site). 

Gataullin made his fortune in Russia by developing real estate. He was the subject of a number of publications about the origins of his capital. In particular, the publication of Ufa1.ru reports that during the years of the formation of Gataullins business, his father held a high position in the Russian prosecutors office. In the same article, Ufa1 claims that Gataullin is the owner of a number of land plots in the United States, on which construction has not been carried out for many years. 

In 2024, Gataullin was reportedly awarded the Russian medal of St. Luke (named after priest from Crimea). This priest was quoted by Vladimir Putin in his speech dedicated to the celebrations in honor of the anniversary of the annexation of the Ukrainian peninsula of Crimea by the Russian Federation. Gataullin also built a church in Moscow at his own expense, also named after the priest from Crimea. 

Explaining Gataullin's inclusion on the sanctions list, the ACF claims that he is involved in corruption and is also accused of illegally seizing land plots.
