Who is Ye Jianming, the mysterious potential buyer for 14% stake in @RosneftEN? @LeonidKovachich, a @CarnegieRu regular contributor, connects the dots between CEFC and the Chinese military intelligence (in RUS) 1/ rbc.ru/opinions/polit…
In 2003-2005, Ye has worked as deputy secretary-general of China Association for International Friendly Contacts, according to CEFC annual report of 2013 de-tenants.org/PageContent/Qa…
CAIFC is one of the public faces of Political Work Department of the Central Military Commission 中央军事委员会政治工作部, part of China's military intelligence
These dots in public records, confirmed by some of my recent interviews on CEFC in China and around the world, may help to explain Ye's sudden rise and demise. CEFC problems coincide with grand purge in PLA, including downfall of Fang Fenghui
If Ye Jianming and his company are indeed tied to Chinese military intelligence, bromance between him and Igor Sechin won't be surprising. Before becoming Putin's secretary and then Russia's oil tzar, Sechin started his career in the USSR intel as military "translator" in Angola
The talks started in June 2017, and led to swift agreement by It September 8. Worth noting that Putin wasn't present at the signing ceremony of the MOU, and the only contact between Putin and CEFC executive was at VTB's investor conference in October en.cefc.co/detail/news/77…
Yet another dot: Ye Yanming was business partner with Ye Jingzi 叶静子, eldest daughter of general Ye Xuanning 叶选宁 (longtime head of PLA intel) and granddaughter of one of PLA founders Ye Jianying 叶剑英: acnnewswire.com/press-release/…美亚娱乐公布配售280,000,000股予凯利资本(香港)
Mysterious CEFC and CAIFC, public facade of Chinese military intel, share very similar logos. #coincidence
These logos could also work well for CEFC and CAIFC
