📌Note story change: “Never was there a need for a translator," the source said. Toensing responded that Parnas was her personal translator in legal matters because she needed her own.

“Mr. Firtash met Parnas for the first time in June 2019.

The stmt continues: "Parnas was retained as a translator by the law firm of diGenova & Toensing.
No money has been paid to Parnas by Firtash beyond his work as a translator for the law firm."
So Firtash pays Toensing & diGenova & they pay Parnas? 🤷♀️

Previously. Parnas was telling his wealthy contacts that he was short on cash and needed loans, he was now living the high life — surrounded by bodyguards, traveling in luxury SUVs and jetting up & down the East Coast on private chartered planes.

Wow! Toensing & diGenova sure pays ‘their translator’ extremely well....#SureJan
They also started to ramp up their own spending. Between August 23 and October 6, Parnas and Fruman used their company, Global Energy Producers, to pay for six private flights up and down the East Coast.
cnn.com/2019/11/01/pol…
cnn.com/2019/11/01/pol…
This sound closer to the truth:
📌Parnas told some associates that Firtash was funding the flights,
📌He also told some of them that Firtash was now paying all the expenses for Global Energy Producers.

📌Correia, Parnas and Fruman would take a share of the profits. While Parnas gave the impression the Qatar deal was Firtash's idea and had his blessing, it's unclear what if anything Firtash actually knew of the proposal.

The next month, on October 4, flight records show that Parnas chartered a jet to Cape Cod.

The purpose of their trip to Vienna, as CNN previously reported, was to meet up with Giuliani and former Ukrainian prosecutor general Victor Shokin, a major player in the widening Ukraine scandal because of his discredited claims against the Bidens.
cnn.com/2019/11/01/pol…
cnn.com/2019/11/01/pol…
Shokin had submitted an affidavit to an Austrian court supporting Firtash's arguments against extradition, claiming there was political interference by the US.
cnn.com/2019/11/01/pol…
cnn.com/2019/11/01/pol…
🔑It was in that affidavit that Shokin first made the unfounded claims about Biden, which Giuliani promoted for months after speaking with Shokin earlier this year.
cnn.com/2019/11/01/pol…
cnn.com/2019/11/01/pol…
That conversation happened over Skype after Giuliani unsuccessfully lobbied the State Department and White House to grant Shokin a visa so they could to meet face-to-face.

cnn.com/2019/11/01/pol…
Parnas and Giuliani hoped to book Shokin for a Fox News interview in Vienna, where he could levy his allegations against Biden for the first time on American television, according to four sources. It never happened.
