PM Browne Unveils Detailed Expenditure Report from Alfa Nero Sale

You can now listen to Antigua News articles!

In a move to ensure transparency, Prime Minister and Finance Minister Gaston Browne has publicly presented a comprehensive account of the US$40 million (XCD$108 million) received by the government from the sale of the Alfa Nero superyacht in 2024.

The detailed breakdown was shared during the Browne and Browne Show on Pointe FM this  Saturday.

This disclosure comes in light of a lawsuit filed in Puerto Rico by Yulia Guryeva-Motlokhov, the daughter of the yacht’s original Russian oligarch owner, which questions both the sale price of the vessel and the allocation of the proceeds.

Furthermore, Browne expressed his intent to initiate legal action against the Associated Press, along with several local and regional news outlets, over claims made in recent articles concerning the Alfa Nero sale.
