"According to independent estimates, in the period from 2000 to 2017 some $430.7 billion were taken out of our country. These enormous funds could have been invested in the development of our economy," Bondarev said.
Bondarev stressed that illegal capital flight remained one of the key problems which affects the implementation of development strategies in various sectors of the Russian economy.
