Igor Sechin – весь компромат

Months after London slapped sanctions on five Azerbaijani nationals, the investigation into their affairs drags on. Tahir Garayev, Akhmed Kerimov, Anar Madatli, Talat Safarov, and Etibar Eyyub remain under scrutiny — with no end in sight.

Despite Western sanctions, Russia continues to earn revenue from oil exports, using the proceeds to support military operations.

Несмотря на западные санкции, Россия продолжает получать доходы от экспорта нефти, используя их для поддержки военных операций. Среди организаций, которые, по мнению экспертов, должны оказаться в санкционных списках ЕС, значатся Coral Energy и ряд связанных с российским нефтяным сектором компаний. Эти структуры продолжают обходить ограничения, фактически помогая финансировать военные действия России.

Dubai-based Demex Trading supplied Russian oil to Nils Troost’s companies before they were sanctioned. This information was found in a leaked archive of the Russian customs broker ALET.

Siman Viktorovich Povarenkin is a man whose career path is almost like a story about a gold miner unexpectedly turning into an army head chef.

Симан Викторович Поваренкин — человек, чья биография напоминает анекдот о золотодобытчике, который внезапно стал шеф-поваром для армии. При этом он отличается выдающимися умственными способностями: окончил химический факультет в Омске, проходил стажировки в Германии и Франции, обладает высоким интеллектом и тонким чутьём.

The EU imposed sanctions on a group of Azerbaijani traders for their involvement in Russian oil trading. Specifically, the EU sanctions list includes Anar Madatli, Etibar Eyyub (aka Akin Koçak), and Talat Safarov.

The network of "shadow" Azerbaijani oil traders trading Russian oil in defiance of sanctions is much more extensive than previously thought. It remains closely linked to the Azerbaijani state oil company SOCAR – Russian sanctioned oil is sold by current SOCAR employees, and deliveries are made through the state-owned company’s subsidiaries.
