There's a Russian businessman Magomed Bilalov whose brother Akhmed was former VP of Russian Olympic Committee - both were criminally charged and fled Russia in 2013

A quick note that little information on Eitanium Ltd appears to be publicly available through open source queries (there’s a Thai cyber solutions company with a similar name, but no evidence that it’s connected)
Sharing thread above for others to research more

Erik Prince is reportedly an investor in Wickr and with his business associates Ko, Dorian Barak, Chinese company KuangChi Science has invested in Agent Vi - surveillance technology similar to NSO Group

Adding another item - Eitanium Ltd director Michael Yudelson is linked in OpenCorporates to six companies including one called Russian Armament LLC, previously called Thor Global Imports

The US-Russia meeting about a Ukraine peace plan not only excluded Ukraine, a main focus is restoring US/Russia relations.

Kremlin spokesman Peskov said talks would be focused on “restoring the entire range of U.S.-Russian relations" as well as Ukraine.

It is so on brand that the Trump administration's first meeting with Russia about a Ukraine peace plan not only excluded Ukraine, it did not include any European officials and did include two officials from Saudi Arabia who hosted the meeting.

Rumors have been swirling that Elon Musk may donate $100 million to Nigel Farage’s right-wing Reform UK party - in a small scoop, I report Musk has just incorporated X. AI London Ltd, showing he is 'reaching across the pond' on multiple fronts, my latest:
newstracs.com/elon-musk-may-…
Last week Musk met with Nigel Farage and Reform’s party treasurer Nick Candy at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago

Filings on UK Companies House show that this month Musk also incorporated X . AI London Ltd

xAI has raised nearly $12 billion and is valued at $50 billion
newstracs.com/elon-musk-may-…
Earlier this year I reported the first $6bil funding round for xAI included $400 million from Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal al Saud and Kingdom Holding (per June 2024 financial statement). That amount has likely increased with the latest financing round.
