Reading about the Hungarian Prime Minister’s bizarre request to become a “symbolic ‘adoptive parent’” of a zoo zebra, I had a feeling of déjà vu. Another oligarch, Bidzina Ivanishvili, who lives in a glass castle overlooking my hometown Tbilisi, is also obsessed with zebras. To be fair, he has a whole private menagerie. “Lemurs roamed free in my yard like cats,” Ivanishvili once boasted to journalists. He’s even taken selected reporters to meet his zebras.
