1. Abramovich, was permitted by Putin to sell his oil company for $13 billion in 2005 to a Russian State firm. In 2008, he received a $1.8 billion, Russian tax payer funded, loan from Putin's, US sanctioned, VEB bank to bail out his co-owned global steel/mining company, EVRAZ.

2. Side Note 1 - In 2007, Abramovich and his Russian partners paid an estimated $3 billion to purchase three steel plants in the US, (Oregon, Colorado, and Delaware) and five steel plants in Canada (Alberta and Saskatchewan).

3. EVRAZ's US Claymont Steel plant closed on Dec. 2013, just three months before the US/EU imposed Ukrainian related sanctions against Russia. Claymont, Delaware is the boyhood home of VP Joe Biden, the Obama Administration's 2013-2016 public champion of Ukraine's revolution.

4. In Feb 2014, Russia invades Crimea; In April 2014, Abramovich warns the Ukraine crisis could hit its EVRAZ owned Ukraine businesses. Between 2014-2018, EVRAZ sells all of its Ukrainian held corporate assets.

5. In one of his first actions, President Trump, changed his 'Buy American Steel' campaign pledge to allow EVRAZ produced Canadian steel pipes to be used in the Keystone XL Pipeline. In addition, Conrad Winkler,

6. Chief Executive of EVRAZ North America, attended President Trump's March 2018 Steel Tariffs meeting at the White House. Between 2013-2018, EVRAZ has spent nearly $2 million lobbying Congress/Commerce Dept. against National Defense Authorization Act, "Buy American Provisions".

7. Side note 2 - Abramovich is classed as second on the Coal Dirty Dozen list. The Russian EVRAZ Raspadskaya Coal complex produces 1.5GT of carbon emission, which is not far off of Russia's overall annual carbon emissions output.

8. Side Note 3 - Abramovich has a personal and philanthropic relationship with Jared and Ivanka Trump. He hosted Jared and Ivanka at his home in Moscow in early 2014. /END

Interesting that Roman Abramovich's spokesperson denied in August 2018 any US lobbying activities but it's well documented that his co-owned steel company, #Evraz North America has spent millions lobbying Congress, DoD, and Commerce against US buy American provisions.

Colorado taxpayers should be cautious. Russian oligarch and "Putin fixer" Roman Abramovich's Evraz played a similar corporate game with its Claymont, Delaware steel plant that closed in 2013. Agreements with Evraz aren't always what they seem.

Alex Van Der Zwaan's archived Skadden profile says he represented "the Evraz Group S.A. in relation to their holdings in mining assets in Ukraine." Evraz is owned by Ivanka & Jared's close friend Roman Abramovich, a Russian billionaire close to Putin. Van Der Zwaan also

successfully represented Abramovich during the Berezovsky trial in the UK.

Vekselberg, Blavatnik, Alfa Bank Execs, and others were introduced to Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner during a 2014 Moscow charity event, hosted by Roman Abramovich. Alfa bank loaned Abramovich's EVRAZ NA Steel Company $200M in 2015. #TrumpCrimeFamily

According to ProPublica, Roman Abramovich's co-owned steel & mining Company, EVRAZ S.A., spent more than 1.3 million dollars lobbying Congress, Commerce, EPA, and the US Trade Representative. Lobbying intensified after 2013 Ukraine uprising and continues into first quarter 2018.

The largest steel gas line pipe makers in North America are Russian owned. Namely Roman Abramovich’s, Evraz and Anton Chubais,TMK IPSCO. Abramovich and Chubais were Yeltsin loyalist but we're both key players in bringing Putin to power.

Roman Abramovich’s, Evraz recently threatened to close its Pueblo, Colorado steel plant and open a new plant in an unnamed US southern city unless Colorado meets its energy supply (coal) demands. Recently, President Trump tweeted that new steel plants will soon be built in US.

theguardian.com/business/2006/…

A 2006 Guardian article accurately predicts Roman Abramovich's strategy, in collaboration with Putin, to purchase Evraz and use it as a platform to secure control over global energy exploitation, extraction, and transportation.

.

It has to do with opening US public and private lands to fracking and other natural resource/mineral extraction. There are billions in play and the Russian oligarchs who own the US extraction, heavy industries, and mining technologies are key to the plan. #plasmafracking, #Evraz

Roman Abramovich is a controlling investor in a Texas fracking Company, Propell. Propell and its sister company, Novas own the US/Canadian patents for this technology. Plasma fracking is Russian developed and could be used throughout the US--offering billions in future revenue.

After his UK visa denial, Roman Abramovich obtained Israeli citizenship. He reportedly is investing heavily in nano technology research at a prestigious Israeli University.

Reportedly to obtain immunity, from acts committed during Russia's Aluminum Wars, Abramovich was elected in 2000, the Governor of Chukotka. Such RS Government immunity is similar to Supreme Court nominee Kavanaugh's opinion that sitting US presidents are immune from prosecution.

Correction: it's Anatoly Chubais not Anton

Switzerland's federal police advised officials to reject his application over suspicions he might be involved in money laundering or have contact with criminal organisations.

Mr Abramovich denies any wrongdoing.

Roman Abramovich already has a mountain estate in Aspen and now wanted to reside in Switzerland.

Abramovich, Abramov, Shvidler, and Frolov are shuffling money from Evraz to prepare for potential US sanctions.
rusletter.com/articles/russi…

This article takes on new significance since Michael Cohen flipped to the SC and links nicely to the previous tweet that Abramovich is moving money out of Evraz. The Chabad, Rosen, Sapir, Cohen, Trump, Liviev, Abramovich mob nexus may be fast unraveling.

Propell is now Pledge Petroleum Corp. if oil prices rise to more than $100 a barrel Abramovich will make billions by plasma pulse fracking the US. Ervington is an Abramovich owned holding company.

Millhouse LLC is the Cypriot registered holding company co-owned by Roman Abramovich and also is the holding company for Evraz. It appears Roman Abramovich may also be associated, through Ivan Persivanov, with Cleveland Bio Labs.
cbiolabs.com/ivan-persiyano…

Cleveland Biolabs inc (CBLI) principal Investor is RS oligarch, David Davidovich. Davidovich is a partner and close friend of Roman Abramovich and profited during the 2005 sale of Sibneft. CBLI performs nuclear bio defense for the DoD and cancer research.
biospace.com/article/releas…

OncoTartis is associated with Cleveland Biolabs. Abramovich is using his new holding company, Norma to invest in this cancer cure start up. Pharmstandard is Abramovich's former Russian company. OncoTartis is linked to all US pharmaceutical companies.

Interesting Guardian article describes how Roman Abramovich came to own Russia's largest oil company, Sibneft (now Gazprom).

Blackmoon Crypto = Abramovich, Frolov, Usmanov, Deripaska. When real estate, steel, and aluminum fail there is always crypto to protect a billion here, a billion there, a billion everywhere.

Abramovich’s investment in Israeli based nanotech though StoreDot; support of nano innovator, Simon Litsyn; and university R&D enhances his broader investments in biotech, energy extraction/transfer, industry, batteries, consumer tech, and social media.
en.globes.co.il/en/article-rom…

Abramovich invests in Israeli startups whose portfolio includes Spot.IM quick-charging battery StoreDot, video monetization company Anyclip, venture capital iAngels Crowd, children’s entertainment startup Kidoz, and rideshare firm Via.
m.calcalistech.com/Article.aspx?g…

The above Abramovich Israeli start ups have a common theme to extend the reach of digital and nano technology; to seamlessly observe, control, and direct user content; and to use all forms of media software and hardware to maximize use, make money, and retain digital information.

More biotech Abramovich investments through his Norma holding company. BrainQ, an Israeli startup, offers neural artificial intelligence technology and Taris affords access to MIT trained medical scientists.

Greenleas, British Virgin Islands {BVI) manages Abramovich’s Pledge/Propell; Crosland was the RS Evraz SA holding company used to purchase Evraz NA and create Lanebrook. It again holds Abramov/Frolov Evraz shares; Shvidler’s shares are held by BVI Toshi.

Nov 2017-HPSCI Hearing-MR. SIMPSON: ...one thing...worth looking at is the relationships among people...including that [of] Roman Abramovich. I think ...the travel histories of Don Jr./Ivanka ... the connections between the Abramovich's and Ivanka/Jared...requires looking into...

The Jan. 25 motion to dismiss in Pitkin County District Court, stipulated by all of the parties, was done with prejudice, meaning Abramovich can not bring a lawsuit against the defendants for similar claims. aspendailynews.com/news/russian-o…

While the Comcast/Abramovich suit was settled why were permits & property boundary lines not obtained? Why were bulldozers used to lay a simple fiber optic cable? Did they excavate deep? And why did the judge find “with prejudice” against Abramovich?#moretothestory

Abramovich and his business partner Abramov, appear to be ceding the White House and US Senate to the Dems in 2020. Protecting Evraz from sanctions would be unnecessary with a Trump second term and a GOP controlled Senate. Always looking 10 steps ahead.

Norma, a Cypriot venture capital firm owned by Roman Abramovich, has invested in this Rochester, NY anti-aging biotech firm. Also some details about Rusnano--Anatoly Chubais, Entolimod, and Cleveland Biolab's sister Russian biotech (test bunny?) firm.

“Abramovich is not the only Russian tycoon with Israeli citizenship. Since the first of these oligarchs began to arrive in the country, they have made a few investments, but their contribution to the Israeli economy has been negligible.” Source Haaretz.com 2019

Abramovich is a primary investor in two New York anti-aging genome companies, #Everon Biosciences and Genome Protection Inc (#GPI). #ClevelandBioLabs has entered into a 50-5O relationship with Everon to participate in GPI. sec.report/Document/00013…

Interesting to note that the primarily Russian C-suite executives and the scientific staff are nearly identical for Abramovich’s #OncoTartis, #Everon Biosciences, and GPI companies. Everon and OncoTartis Headquarters are both located in the same Buffalo, NY office building.

Everon is the anti-aging R&D entity and #GPI is the pharmaceutical production/marketing firm. CBLI provides access to Entolimod, lucrative US GOV contracts, & enables support from Anatoly Chubais #Rusnano #Panacela Labs Inc. (Skolkovo, Russia) and its anti-cancer drug, #Mobilan.

Putin’s/#Rusnano’s 10 year, 4 billion dollars biotech strategy: “Expatriates can navigate the peculiarities of the Russian business environment in ways that other foreign partners might not, Gudkov notes...which may help to grease administrative wheels.”

Andrei Gudkov PhD, D.Sci, who emigrated from the Soviet Union is chief scientist in the following Russian owned US biotech companies: OncoTartis, Cleveland BioLabs, Enveron BioSciences, Genome Protection Inc., Incuron Inc, Roswell Park Cancer Center, & Russia’s Panacela Labs.

Roman Abramovich has extensive interests in all the above listed biotech companies. He also has donated over 1 million dollars annually to the Roswell Park Cancer Center, where many of his interested biotech companies are located. roswellpark.org/sites/default/…

Roman #Abramovich donated 30 million to create Israel’s Tel Aviv University’s (TAU) Center for #Nanoscience and #Nanotechnology, scheduled to open in 2020.

This is another interesting funding vehicle for Roman Abramovich’s OncoTartis. Lots of Russians in the management team and advisory board for WeFundHealth. Deutsche Bank and Skolkovo also make a showing. wefundhealth.com/featured-posts…

Roman Abramovich’s Propell-Pledge Petroleum plasma-pulse fracking investment companies were dissolved due to financial losses. An attempt was made to create a new diesel bio fuel company, Renewable Technology Solutions that also failed in June 2019. sec.report/CIK/0001434110
