Back to the time, @realDonaldTrump and @IvankaTrump built a Trump Tower in Baku, Azerbaijan with a developer tied to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, Anar Mammadov. We wrote about it here: 2/6 @traciemac_Bmore narativ.org/2017/07/23/cri…
Mammadov's father was a once powerful former Azeri Transportation Minister Ziya Mammadov. His Baghlan holding company is a main player in the Azerbaijan Laundromat. @IvankaTrump played a big role in the design and build of Baku. 3/6. @traciemac_Bmore
The Baku Trump Tower was never completed, and the building burnt down in April. All the while, anti-corruption investigators traced Mammadov's cash as part of the $2.9 Bn "Azerbaijan Laundromat". Kudos to the @OCCRP for this work. 4/6 occrp.org/en/azerbaijani…
Much of the Laundromat money came from the Azeri govt but most of the rest came from a Russian state company, funneled through the Estonian Branch of Danske Bank into four shell companies in the U.K. 5/6 theguardian.com/world/2017/sep…
British authorities have frozen a laundromat-related bank account. We can't say if this spells danger for @realDonaldTrump or @IvankaTrump, but ties to money launderers with Iranian and Russian ties is not a good look for Trump or his first daughter. /End reuters.com/article/britai…
