Since being dismissed as CEO of VK in 2014,3 the Durov brothers have traveled the world in self-imposed exile4 as citizens of Saint Kitts and Nevis.5 In 2017 Pavel joined the World Economic Forum (WEF) Young Global Leaders as a representative of Finland.67

Biography
Pavel Durov was born in Leningrad (now St. Petersburg), but spent most of his childhood in Turin, Italy. His father Valery (who holds a PhD in philology) was employed there.13 He attended an Italian elementary school, and after returning to Russia in 2001 attended the Academy Gymnasium in St. Petersburg.14 In 2006, he graduated from the Philology Department of the Saint Petersburg State University, where he received a first class degree. Pavel Durov's early life and career are described in detail in the Russian-language book The Durov Code. The True Story of VK and its Creator (2012).15
Durov started VKontakte, later known as VK, in 2006, which was initially influenced by Facebook.16 During the time when he and his brother Nikolai built upon the VKontakte website, the company grew to a value of $3 billion.5
In 2011 he was involved in a standoff with a police team outside his home in St. Petersburg after the government demanded the removal of opposition politicians' pages after controversial parliamentary elections.1516 They left after about an hour.
In December 2013, Durov was pressuredvague into selling his 12% of VK stock to Ivan Tavrin, the owner of the major Russian internet company Mail.ru,5 who subsequently sold it to Mail.ru, giving it 52% majority ownership of VK. In 2014, Mail.ru bought all remaining shares and became the sole owner of VK.1718
Dismissal from VK
On 1 April 2014 Durov submitted his resignation to the board; at first, due to the fact the company confirmed he had resigned, it was believed to be related to the Ukrainian crisis which started in February.19 However, Durov himself claimed it was an April Fool's Joke on 3 April 2014.20
On 16 April 2014 Durov publicly refused to hand over data of Ukrainian protesters to Russia's security agencies and block Alexei Navalny's page on VK.3 Instead he posted the relevant orders on his own VK page 2122 claiming that the requests were unlawful.
On 21 April 2014 Durov was dismissed as CEO of VK. The company claimed it was acting on his letter of resignation a month earlier that he failed to recall.323 Durov then claimed the company had been effectively taken over by Vladimir Putin's allies,2324 suggesting his ouster was the result of both his refusal to hand over personal details of users to federal law enforcement and his refusal to hand over the personal details of people who were members of a VKontakte group dedicated to the Euromaidan protest movement.2324 Durov then left Russia and stated that he had "no plans to go back"24 and that "the country is incompatible with Internet business at the moment".3
Life after VK
Upon leaving Russia, he obtained Saint Kitts and Neviscitizenship through donating $250,000 to the country's Sugar Industry Diversification Foundation, and secured US$300 million in cash within Swiss banks. This allowed him to focus on creating his next company, Telegram, which was originally based in Berlin and focused on an encrypted messaging service.5
