Russian GRU targeted Burisma and subsidaries such as Kub-Gas, co-owned by Burisma & Cub Energy, which is majority owned by Robert Bensh's Pelicourt

Trump's ex Energy Sect Perry suggested Burisma biz partner Bensh for Naftogaz board & he joined this year

Maybe MSM journalists can ask Trump admin why a business partner with Burisma was suggested to join Naftogaz board if associating with Burisma is so problematic...

I heard Robert Bensh was appointed in March 2020 through @ktskts11

Frank Mermoud, director of Burisma co-investor Cub Energy is close to Manafort & coordinated Washington diplomatic corps at 2016 Republican National Convention when platform changed to remove references to arming Ukraine & Mermoud is linked to Arron Banks

Remember the 'mystery' state-owned bank that Mueller was investigating?

It was an Egyptian state-owned bank

Mueller team was trying to see if $ flowing through the bank backed millions Trump donated to his campaign

I have to eat crow for joining the wild guessing game

Wonder if folks on the Mueller team were amused at the twitter speculation - and how far off base everyone was

Mueller's team tried to understand the $10 million contribution Trump gave his campaign 11 days before the 2016 election & the Trump campaign's ties to Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi

At a 2019 G7 summit Trump said "Where's my favorite dictator?"

Dmitry Rybolovlev (bought FL mansion in '08 $50 mil over what Trump paid) funded Swiss battery co Alevo & in 2017 Alevo NC plant went bankrupt

I wrote about Rybolovlev's ties to Innolith which bought some Alevo assets

A recent story says Rybolovlev is Innolith's majority owner
This September article said Dmitry Rybolovlev was in talks with Greek Development Ministry for the creation of a battery factory and 200 million-euro investment for "production of high-standard batteries by Innolith, a company majority owned by Rybolovlev"

When Rybolovlev's Swiss based Alevo's NC battery plant went bankrupt Innolith bought some assets including a GridBank unit that had been hooked up to the PJM network in MD - a regional transmission org that manages grid reliability for 65 million+ people
