Interesting thread on Trump Moscow & Evgeny Dvoskin (Mueller rpt p76) - Felix Sater spoke w/Dvoskin about getting Cohen & Trump passports to arrange visas for Moscow trip

Dvoskin, an exec of sanctioned Genbank, served time in prison in US, was deported to Russia & pursued by FBI
Dvoskin a co-owner of Genbank is a Russian-born financier who grew up in Brighton Beach at the same time as Sater - Dvoskin and sanctioned Genbank were involved with Trump Moscow discussions
In an interview this week Felix Sater downplayed interaction with Genbank related to Trump Tower Moscow and said:

"It was one conversation. It wasn’t even really talking. I don’t think they count as a bank we were seriously talking to."

Footnote 359 in the Mueller report notes "At the time that Sater provided this financing letter to Cohen, Genbank was subject to U.S. government sanctions"

This footnote appears to reference a 'financing letter' related to Genbank.

Docs published by Buzzfeed include image of doc sent by Felix Sater to Michael Cohen, followed by text in which Cohen asks Sater "Who is Gen Bank?" Sater replied saying it's 50% govt owned

Not clear if this is related to doc mentioned in Mueller report
