How Firtash is connected with Russian mafia and why he wasn't extradited to the USA
🇨🇭Dmitry Firtash was arrested in Vienna at US request in 2014, after which a bail of €125 million was paid for him by Russian billionaire, partner of criminal Alisher Usmanov Vasily Anisimov, a resident of #Switzerland.
🇦🇹One of Firtash's lawyers was Dieter Bömderfer, ex-Minister of Justice of #Austria himself.
❗️🇺🇸🇦🇹🇭🇺Gazprom partner Dmitry Firtash came to the attention of law enforcement agencies in the #US, #Austria and #Hungary back in the early 2000s in connection with suspicions of involvement in the criminal group of Mogilevich.
🇺🇸Mogilevich was imprisoned twice in the USSR in the 70s, including for fraud, then he began to develop business in the USA: in 1984, his emissary David Bogatin bought five condominiums in Trump Tower, they were seized by a court verdict in 1987 for laundering from criminal activity. You can read more about this here.
🇭🇺🇷🇺🇨🇿🇺🇸🇨🇦Since 1989, Mogilevich lived in Budapest, from where he ruled an international criminal 'empire' that extended to #Russia, the #Czech_Republic, the #US, #Canada and other countries.
During privatization, he seized a weapons factory in #Hungary.
From 1992 to 1996, Mogilevich was suspected in US of drug trafficking, gold smuggling, extortion, money laundering, fraud, smuggling of weapons, military equipment, cultural property from Russia and other countries, including smuggling military equipment of the "Western Group of Forces" in East #Germany 🇩🇪
According to the FBI, he was one of the seven leaders of the Solntsevskaya group, where he was responsible for money laundering.
🇭🇺🇷🇺In 1999, Mogilevich relocated from Hungary to Moscow, taking with him a suitcase of compromising material on Orban.
▪️Frauds with gas looked in the following way: Gazprom, instead of re-exporting Turkmen gas to Ukraine on its own, for some reason ceded the rights to export gas to the company EuralTransGas (ETG), registered in the Hungarian village of Chabdy. Andras Knopp, who previously headed the Hungarian branch of Gazprom, was listed as the president in this murky organization.
‼️🇭🇺🇦🇹This [Hungarian] company was 25% owned by the Viennese company DEG (full name D.E.G Handels - und Unternehmensberatungsgesellschaft m.b.H).
From the full extract of ETG from the commercial register of Hungary, it follows that D.E.G was located at the same address as Firtash's actual business — Group DF International - Löwelstr. 12/2/9 in Vienna.
🇭🇺🇬🇧Another co-owner of ETG was Atlantic Caspian Resources, led by Robert Shetler-Jones of London, also an active member of the Mogilevich gang. Today he is officially on the board of directors of Firtash's DF Group.
🇨🇾🇷🇺At ETG, Mogilevich and Firtash also collaborated with the Tambovskaya criminal gang. The co-owners of ETG were the Cypriot offshore companies Dema Trustees and Dema Nominees, who own a stake in the St. Petersburg Oil Terminal. At the same time, the real beneficiaries of the terminal were St. Petersburg criminal authorities Ilya Traber, Sergey Vasiliev and their junior partner Dmitry Skigin ...
🇹🇲🇷🇺🇺🇦🇪🇺Later, Firtash-Mogilevich's companies were developing the same scheme for the re-export of #Turkmen gas through another pad — RosUkrEnergo, created by Moscow for gas transit to the #EU countries. It was with this company that Gazprom concluded deals from 2005 to 2014.
💥🇷🇺💥One of the managers of RosUkrEnergo since 2004 has been former ex-President Medvedev's classmate Konstantin Chuichenko, now Deputy Prime Minister of Russia — and this is one of the many reasons why the FBI and NYT "did not find" Firtash's connection with Mogilevich ...😁
⚠️🇦🇹Another reason is that the co-founder of RosUkrEnergo together with Firtash was a very respectable Austrian Raiffeisen Bank! Which, in theory, was supposed to first check what kind of shit he climbs into ...
It was Raiffeisen who later agreed with the "FBI representative" to close the "Firtash case."
