These privatizations caused a downturn in the economy, which forced the Russian government to reevaluate the privatization rules and to reverse some of these agreements. Although the government pledged that only illegals privatizations will be affected by this measurement, the reality is that because of the unclear rules, any pretext can be use against any corporation where the Russian government could have a renew interest.
