Tycoon Arcadi Gaydamak. (Motti Kimche) Last update - 00:31 08/07/2008 Gaydamak tells student to 'go to hell' over Angola question By Zeev Yanai, TheMarker Correspondent Tags: Tel Aviv University  Tycoon Arcadi Gaydamak on Monday lashed out at a Tel Aviv University student who asked him about his business interests in Angola, telling him to "shut your mouth and go to hell." He also told the student: "You are asking provocative questions, but I am happy to answer on this - because it only proves that I resolve international crises." The Russian-Israeli billionaire was responding to queries about whether he profited from arms dealing in Angola, and much money he earned in the African state. Advertisement At the university, Gaydamak delivered a speech on the history of Angola since the Cold War and claimed that he was responsible for peace there. "I brought peace to Angola, now there is prosperity because of me," he said. Gaydamak added that his success in the country had encouraged stability throughout the whole continent of Africa.
