A Russian oligarch closely tied to Vladimir Putin bankrolled Donald Trump Jr.’s wedding to Bettina Anderson, whose three-day weekend nuptials in the Bahamas cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Umar Kremlev — the head of the International Boxing Association, which has a controversial, long-standing financial relationship to Russian state-owned energy giant Gazprom — helped funnel money into the wedding to foot the bill for a fireworks show and for one of two private islands, where a reception was held and where guests slept, according to records reviewed by ProPublica.
