Causes and consequences of the "Kyrgyz scandal"
Below is an analysis of the circumstances that led to the change in the leadership of
the Russian AK "Transneft" in September 1999, and tells about the previous and
accompanying events, including primarily in connection with the so-called "Kyrgyz scandal",
which at one time did not become known to the general public. However, it was the "Kyrgyz
scandal" that caused many resignations and appointments, and as a result, including the
"Kyrgyz scandal", changed the political landscape in Russia; - of course, coupled with many
other events of that period.
As for the change in the leadership of AK Transneft in September 1999, at that time V.V.
Putin noted that the decision on the scandalous appointment of S. Vainshtok as president of
Transneft was made by N. Aksyonenko and V. Kalyuzhny, and later promised to look into the
problem more deeply.
However, due to a number of circumstances, it turns out that it is difficult to raise the
topic of the “Kyrgyz scandal” and the events connected with it at the state level, and it would
be necessary to talk about them.
This is what the proposed analysis serves.
But one should immediately make a reservation that there are those who really do not
want to touch on this topic, and the author had to make sure that the possibilities of modern
science are great, and the meanness of the current "masters of life" is limitless.
And so let's start with a note.
Note:
In this analysis, the terms “source” (“sources”), “source data” and “intelligence” will be
used. A source should be understood as a person who, by the nature of his activity, was
related to the events being analyzed, or, in the opinion of the author (analyst), possessed
trustworthy information, and in a personal conversation, including in a telephone
conversation, provided one or another information or his interpretation of those or other
events. Of course, the participants in the events themselves are among the sources. At the
same time, it should be understood that various sources, including very serious ones, are not
eager to confirm these or those words of theirs, and will even most likely deny what they
reported, because of fear for themselves or loved ones, or for fear of trouble due to service,
or out of unwillingness to be held accountable for what they did.
For this reason, the sources will not be disclosed, with rare exceptions.
References to sources, data from sources or intelligence information imply that the
source or sources reported the information not out of a desire to compromise anyone, or for
other similar reasons, but out of a desire to clarify the situation for the analyst.
If there were reasons to doubt the bona fides of the source, a comment will be made
about this.
The expression "operational information" should be understood as "information
obtained from a source or sources".
The expression “operational objectives” does not require comment, nor does
“operational necessity”. For operational purposes or for purposes of operational necessity,
certain actions were taken to clarify the circumstances of interest or the attitude of some
persons to certain events.
In addition, the term "sources from the special services" will be used, as well as the
expressions "according to sources from the special services", or "according to sources close
to the special services." For the reason that persons, including those who referred to
belonging to the state special services, did not show their official IDs, stating, for example,
that “we each have six passports,” but conversations, or rather dosed “drainage” of
information by these persons , took place in an informal setting, information with such a
note should be treated with a certain degree of caution, especially since there are good
reasons to believe that the security personnel of the oil companies acted under the guise of
state special services.
The author, however, in the course of those conversations took into account just this
option.
A priori, it should be assumed that the relevant services of the oil Companies
mentioned in the text will deny any involvement in the events that will be described below
and will try to discredit the author of this analysis or its content.
They have a lot to lose.
But, in addition, the departmental fragmentation of state special services allows in a
number of cases yesterday's swindlers, and now "state people", to use the special services in
their personal interests.
There, after all, everything is quite simple in terms of discipline, - you were told to do
this, - you do it.
However, it should be borne in mind that the secret services are far from stupid, and at
the same time, as practice has shown, psychotropic drugs and special technical means are
easily and simply used.
For example, all kinds of hypnosis for a person with a persistent nervous system who
is not under the influence of psychotropic drugs are trifles.
And psychotropic drugs or devices for "turning off" a person for several hours, for
subsequent "complete processing" and coding for suicide - with the use of hypnosis with the
will already turned off - these are not trifles.
One should not think that such devices are something supernatural; - on the
impression, a banal source of directed microwave radiation from about one and a half to
three centimeters; - either specially created, or from among those that were previously used
to recharge "bookmarks" in embassies, moreover, presumably not portable.
The so-called coding technology itself is also very simple, and is based on …
Next will be described, on what it is based …
Anyone who has not felt on himself what it is - he will not understand. Or rather, he
won’t believe it. But there is reason to say that this kind of technology and means can be
applied to anyone who "raises his hand" to the protected interests of those who now consider
themselves "masters of life" - and this is all the more scary because the higher the
intellectual level of the individual, in relation to which those methods and means are
applied, the more true the result.
And this was announced to the author in plain text, and with a smirk.
However, this is a whole big topic, and more on that later.
Everything stated below in a general and abbreviated form about the activities of
"Russian" oil Companies (NK) refers to the period 1999-2001, plus some general remarks on
the events of 2003; however, there is reason to believe that there have been no significant
changes in this area.
The book by Pavel (Paul) Khlebnikov "The Godfather of the Kremlin Boris Berezovsky,
or the History of the Plunder of Russia" (Moscow, 2001, Detective-Press) provides a broader
analysis of the situation in Yeltsin's Russia, and this book will be two or three references in
this analysis …
The basis of this text is an analysis of information from sources, plus an analysis of
open publications of that period in the press, including the Kyrgyz press.
However, this is a digest from a more complete analysis, which, due to a number of
circumstances, was made in 2001, even before any "sources from the special services" or
"sources close to the special services." They, these very "sources", appeared precisely because
some people became aware of the existence of this analysis and the author's desire to go to
serious state special services.
Specifically, the analysis was made at the beginning of 2001, after the vice-president of
AK Transneft, Yevlakhov, unambiguously told the author: “They can also take their heads
off!…” For their interest in the topic of the “Kyrgyz scandal”. In the same way, by the way, one
of the assistants of Mr. Sukhanov, the president of NK Slavneft, told the author by phone:
"They can shoot from a machine gun too! ..."
The interested persons began to fuss, and began to expose their people, as it became
clear later. However, there were many - different ...
Shooting is apparently not fashionable these days; - or too dangerous.
There are other methods to break people.
For your information
1. Russia.
There is no oil market as such in Russia. The term "oil market" is just a fiction. The
same applies to the term “fuel and lubricants market”. Spheres of regional influence are
simply divided among large companies, with relatively small oil producers. (In total, there
are about 450 registered oil production companies in Russia). By the way, the sphere of
interests of OAO NK LUKOIL includes de facto Central Asian republics of the former USSR.
The entire "competition" between large oil companies (NK) is reduced to a political struggle,
including the use of administrative resources. This, of course, if you do not take into account
such "trifles" as a huge number of contract killings committed in various interests.
According to the general impression from the information of sources, the Ministry of
Fuel and Energy (now the Ministry of Energy) mainly plays the role of not a regulatory, but a
licensing organization, and with knowledge of the matter, it permits certain semi-legal
frauds with oil and fuels and lubricants.
For example, an official of the Ministry can authorize the refining of oil at factories of
the neighboring countries, "with the subsequent import of refined products to Russia," and
then he can authorize not to import those fuels and lubricants into Russia, "since at the
moment there is no need for fuels and lubricants in Russia." And the production goes to the
West.
There is a quite definite rate for these and other services (1-2-2.5 USD/ton - depends on
the number of intermediaries).
But these are trifles.
According to the general impression from the information sources, some "regulatory
measures", such as "mandatory" oil supplies by certain Companies to refineries that do not
belong to them, are with a single, albeit complicated pipe system! - nothing more than a way
to create that dregs, in which the officials of the ministry, far from with their eyes closed,
substitute their piece of bread and butter so that they can spread "decl caviar" on it.
But these are also trifles.
According to sources and the participant's admission, at least during the period when
Yeltsin was in power, there were completely illegal, unaccounted for, "leftist" oil supplies to
refineries, as well as "leftist" refining and "leftist" marketing.
And now these are no longer trifles.
There is every reason to believe that this is where the fortunes of people like B.
Berezovsky and some others grew.
But for now, about the oil "market".
After the 20th day of each month, an agreement is reached (conspiracy occurs)
between the largest oil producers and the so-called "market" oil price in Russia (minimum),
as well as for Belarus is determined.
As a rule, this price is as follows - an order of magnitude higher than the cost price! that it is unprofitable to purchase oil for further processing, taking into account
transportation and processing costs for companies that do not have the opportunity to evade
taxes, or preferential taxation, or are unable to conduct offset or barter transactions, or send
part or all of the products for export.
However, since in the established circle of participants at least some of these
possibilities have already been developed, the “market” price also has a protective meaning
against the penetration of unauthorized persons into the “narrow circle”.
But the "narrow circle" is not a fiction. And, by the way, the term repeatedly used by S.
Yevlakhov, now vice-president of AK Transneft, to explain that he is one of this "narrow
circle"
"We have a very narrow circle! ..."
However, let's continue with oil prices.
As a rule, the “internal price” of oil both for divisions of companies and for firms
“working with the company” is significantly lower than the so-called “market” price.
It is at lower prices that companies are reporting, taxes are paid, etc.
The most striking example of this is NK YUKOS, which, by agreement (in collusion)
with the administration of the Tomsk region, sells "its" oil to its own affiliated companies,
usually offshore, at a price of about 800 rubles per ton. And already affiliated firms sell oil at
the real price. The difference, of course, remains offshore. At the same time, tenders for "oil
of future production" are officially announced (and you can even take part in them, and you
can even win by offering, say, 830 rubles per ton ... but ...; - according to the source, you will
live no more than a couple of hours after that! ...).
This scheme has a flaw - this company is forced to sell oil for the needs of the utilities
of the Tomsk region itself at the same low price - but here they have everything down to a
kilogram, taking into account the deterioration of boiler equipment and other factors.
According to some reports, this Company has an indulgence from the Family until
2002 to work under a similar scheme.
However, this information is from the field of the ability to handle magic numbers.
So, from the point of view of the existing legislation, maybe everything in such a
scheme of work is legal, but in fact, it is a mockery. (Recent press reports, including even the
Financial Times, indicate that in addition to bullying, there were direct crimes. We must
assume that the court will prove it. The author has no doubts about it. Even earlier, the
author had no doubts that the activities of the Yukos leaders were criminal.)
But, on top of that, according to the source: “... looking at what the first echelon of
YUKOS is doing ... (this is a quote),” the second echelon of this Company gnawed at liquid
enterprises of the Tomsk region, “... for example, Tomskenergo ... and others ... ( cit.) ",
giving in payment by collusion or under duress" ... up to seventy percent of "empty" shares
... (cit.) "- those shares that are at the price of the paper on which they are printed.
According to some reports, the cost of a ton of oil is no more than twenty dollars.
To be more precise, in Russian conditions, the cost of a barrel of oil (159 liters) is
approximately $1.4 to $2.1, which corresponds to a cost price of $10.2 to $15.3 per ton.
That is, the cost of oil in Russian conditions is about 300 to 450 rubles per ton.
Add a dollar per ton for pumping, add twenty percent for recycling. Add excise tax.
Add shipping costs. Add a trade markup.
And you will get that high-octane gasoline in our conditions should cost less than one
ruble per liter!
This means that utilities in our country should be several times cheaper.
This means that the cost of all goods should be proportionally lower.
This means that in each value the share of labor will be greater, and it is labor that will
become the source of welfare and development.
This means that the ruble should be stronger.
This means that we are all paying for the super-profits of a handful of "oligarchs" who
have seized control of what, by definition, belongs to the national property.
This means that what belongs to all of us is simply being stolen from us.
This means that we are simply brought to our knees by a handful of "privatizers".
Already this calculation "on the fingers" allows us to understand that oil is a special
commodity. It's not even a product. This is a concentration of the opportunities now taken
away from the people and the state.
That is why the "oil business" is surrounded by such secrecy. That is why those who run
the risk of trying to open people's eyes to what the "narrow circle" is doing are hit so hard.
That is why the author of this analysis in August 2001, one "figure" of the "near-oil
business" "after meeting with Alekperov" was told in the eyes: "You are IN CONTROL! ...".
But for now, about something else ...
However, a small calculation can still be made. According to data published and
announced in the mass media, Mr. Khodorkovsky's "personal fortune" ranges from 4 to 12.6
billion US dollars. If you imagine that he "earned" so much in 10 years, then it turns out that
every day, including weekends and Sundays, he "earned" from about 1.25 to more than 3.4
million dollars.
Every day! Without creating anything other than a laundering scheme through
offshore companies!
There are also such beauties, for example, Mr. Berezovsky and Mr. Abramovich.
And a number of the same.
Of course, they will do anything for the sake of continuing this "ondulension at
home"!...
Against the general background, the NK "Surgutneftegaz" stands out (owned by
Bogdanov), which, according to sources, has always paid all taxes to the state. According to
the same data, this is the only Company that has remained independent from Moscow and
from the so-called Family. Sources reported that in those years, when all other "private" NK
absolutely brazenly showed losses in annual reports, Surgutneftegaz showed billions of
dollars in profits.
At the same time, according to sources, forged documents of Surgutneftegaz were
often used in semi-legal and illegal transactions with fuels and lubricants produced by the
Omsk Refinery.
There are two large state - owned oil companies left in Russia, Rosneft and Slavneft. At
the same time, we can say, due to a number of circumstances that will become clear later,
that Slavneft is a purely nominally state-owned company.
I have heard only good things about Rosneft and S. Bogdanchikov. All sources
understood S. Bogdanchikov as a statesman.
There is a separate conversation about Transneft.
But in general, it should be noted that the currently existing "private" Companies are
just artificially created structures, just freeloaders, riders, on those producing and extracting
capacities that were created over many years by the gigantic efforts of the entire people.
The same NGDU that are engaged in oil production, the same administrative buildings
of the NGDU, and next to them are the palaces of the divisions of Companies that manage
everything, which for some reason have the right to say that all this "belongs to them", and
they actively interfere in politics and turn their affairs.
At the same time, we can say that all the "movements" on the mentioned "cases" begin
"from oil".
By the way, the heads of departments of various Companies engaged in oil and fuel
may be unfamiliar, but this is rather an exception - the circle is really very narrow.
For example, according to the statement of S. Yevlakhov, who supervised oil at
LUKOIL-Western Siberia LLC, he "was not even personally acquainted with Yu. Sukhanov",
who was in charge of fuel and lubricants at Sibneft, which did not prevent him from doing
one thing.
But we can definitely say the following.
Currently, the production, transportation, processing of oil and the sale of petroleum
products are concentrated in the hands of a very narrow circle of persons who head
Companies, AK (regardless of the form of ownership), the corresponding divisions in these
structures. According to the general impression, this "narrow circle" is very closely
connected with international capital, including family and national ties. The entire cycle has
reached a high degree of perfection in terms of dividing spheres of influence and generating
income, including using an administrative resource, while alliances of formal competitors
can be created.
In other words, managers are always interested participants in the process. And they
really want to preserve this situation, and what follows from it is to increase it. At the same
time, by and large, their activities have nothing to do with the interests of Russia and the
interests of the Russian people.
Since this brief analysis is devoted to only one scandal, the general story about how the
"narrow circle" technically organized a sophisticated system of intermediaries, "processors"
at factories, schemes for sending fuel and money laundering, and so on will be omitted.
The necessary things will become clear along the way.
A few words about the structure of Companies.
Most often, the NC includes NGDU (oil and gas production management), or an analog,
sometimes several, engaged in the actual production of oil, and not deciding anything-and
created even before the "privatization"!; - and often controlled units that have de jure
independence to some extent, and the Company does not bear full responsibility for their
economic activities; for example, as part of OAO NK LUKOIL was LLC (Limited Liability
Company) "LUKOIL-Western Siberia" (Kogalym of the Khanty-Mansiysk Joint-Stock
Company), for the reasons that will be discussed below, transformed in 1999 into a
joint-stock company (Open Joint-Stock Company) (In 2000, the press reported that
LUKOIL-Western Siberia is a joint-stock company, although the author has bank details that
were valid in the first half of 1999, in which this structure is registered as an LLC. The
details, by the way, are as follows: CCI KOGALYMNEFTEGAZ, TIN 8608085108, checking
account 40702810300000000225, correspondent account 30101810100000000806, BIC
047178806, FCB PETROKOMMERTS, Kogalym, for LUKOIL Western Siberia LLC).
But in any case, this is a single complex with a rigid management vertical, (for the case
of LUKOIL of the then period, V. Alekperov – R. Safin – Yu. Storozhev – S. Vainshtok – S.
Yevlakhov), but the LLC was put forward for the most subtle and risky transactions, often
secured only by an oral agreement - moreover, through a system of intermediaries who
"worked" with the Company or LLC and were a continuation of the management vertical.
In general, we can say that all Companies are absolutely manageable, although in the
same LUKOIL sources even in 2000 saw the presence of three opposing groups.
But we are considering an earlier period.
Until the autumn of 1999, Semyon Mikhailovich (Samuel Moiseevich) Weinstock was in
charge of LUKOIL – Western Siberia LLC, under whom Sergey Kimovich Yevlakhov was
subordinate.
Various sources speak of them as a "sweet couple", inextricably linked by common
affairs and common interests.
Regarding LUKOIL-Western Siberia LLC, S. Yevlakhov himself said about the middle of
1999: "We did not abuse the signing of papers..."
And you can believe it.
However, the subtlety is that, according to sources, in the period around 1997-1999,
there was a rivalry between Vagit Alekperov and Samuel Weinstock, and at the same time S.
Weinstock retained considerable independence.
There are reasons to believe that this was not least because S. Weinstock and S.
Yevlakhov had "their own", "special" relations with NK Sibneft, and, accordingly, with the
structure known as the Family.
It is no secret that the activities of NK Sibneft were extremely politicized in those years.
We can safely say that at that time, NK Sibneft and its leaders did what they wanted,
both in the political sphere and in the sphere of "economy".
Several sources reported that neither B. Berezovsky nor R. Abramovich are the true
"owners" of Sibneft, and the true "owner" of this Company is a certain B. Yeltsin.
But at least we can believe the source who told us that if any of the officials happened
to refuse something to Sibneft due to circumstances at that time, this official felt
uncomfortable for a long time: "What will happen, what will happen!... Sibneft had to
refuse!…»
According to operational information, the governor of the Omsk Region, Leonid
Polezhaev, owns 8% of Sibneft's shares through figureheads.
This is despite the fact that the former director of the Omsk refinery, Ivan Litskevich,
was categorically against the privatization of the plant by Sibneft , and drowned.
Evil tongues say that L. Polezhaev was not against it, and he is happy in his post.
This is not just a remark. Then, in relation to one interesting circumstance, people
"close to Polezhaev" will flash by.
But we must remember Ivan Litskevich.
The brightest memory of Ivan Litskevich has remained in Omsk.
Remembering him as an outstanding leader, patriot, statesman and just a good man, at
the everyday level, they often tell, for example, this. There has always been a wonderful
dining room at the refinery, and at one time in Omsk it was "fashionable" to go there at
lunchtime, penetrating the territory through a hole in the fence. It is clear that this still
caused some inconvenience to the employees. At one of the meetings, one of the economic
workers began to convince Ivan Litskevich that this should be stopped. Litskevich rapped
out: "The whole city built this plant! And now what, to ban the residents of the city even to
have lunch in the factory canteen?!... As long as I am the director, this will not happen!... "It
is clear that instead of that hole in the fence, they did not make a wide gate, but no one
forbade access either.
To this day, all residents of Omsk are convinced that Ivan Litskevich was killed, and no
one believes in the official version of his death. (I was driving to the dacha , where, as
everyone emphasized, he had a swimming pool, - I stopped the car, "wanting to swim"..., - in
the dirty Irtysh on this site, - after Ilya's day, I remember...)
By the way, in the summer of 1999, in a conversation with Yu. Sukhanov, the author
used the expression "...fuel and lubricants from our plant", referring to the Omsk refinery. by
Sukhanov, the then head of the Department of Petroleum Products of Sibneft. Yu. Sukhanov,
it should be noted, has a thin neck and a round head. It was simply wild to see how Yu.
Sukhanov, pale as a wall, shook his head in some kind of paroxysm, and, gasping and
shaking his whole body, as if he spat out: "Not from YOUR factory, but from OUR factory!... "I
had to correct myself:" Geographically from OUR factory..."
However, it was at that time, as it was already clear, that there was a real threat to Yu.
Sukhanov's life - if it had not been possible to hush up the "Kyrgyz scandal" then, Yu.
Sukhanov would simply not have been needed by Sibneft, as an undesirable ... physical
object. It was not for nothing that during that conversation he turned pale... However, he
was not the only one then waiting with trepidation for how things would turn out. S.
Yevlakhov, for example, in Kogalym, in LUKOIL – Western Siberia, repeated like a spell
under his breath: "Never, never will I see the sky in a cage!... And I will never see the sky ...
in diamonds!…»
There were also a number of very worried people involved in the scams, which will be
described later).
According to a source from the special services (2001), Ivan Litskevich was indeed
killed, while the source added that "...we know who did it!...". The source also said: "... in
addition, we know who killed the director of the Angarsk oil refinery!...".
Governor Polezhaev is also a prominent "fighter against the drug mafia." In a sonorous
voice at the Federation Council, he called to eradicate! ...
But the son of V. Kamertsel, the head of the Internal Affairs Directorate, who was
invited by him from Kazakhstan, was detained in Moscow with 4 kilograms of heroin.
L. Polezhaev did not shoot himself, did not leave his post ... On the contrary, he helped
to "grease" his son ...
But in Kazakhstan there were and are much more worthy people for any post in the
Internal Affairs Directorate! ...)
But for now, about something else.
If we exaggerate, we can say this - Vagit Alekperov in" his "Company LUKOIL until the
fall of 1999 had a "fifth column" in the person of S. Weinstock and S. Yevlakhov, focused on
the Family, which posed a threat to the power of V. Alekperov, and acted, among other
things, in the interests of the so-called Family.
At the same time, it should be remembered that in 1998-1999, the health of the
"guarantor of reforms" Boris Yeltsin was such that he could well have died.. No, to die... no,
to die!
The "guarantor" could have died!...
It must be assumed that such businessmen, such as B. Berezovsky, were very
concerned about the probability of such an event.
(However, see the press of that period and the book by P. Khlebnikov.)
However, the power of the already established structure, which was hiding behind
Boris Yeltsin, was very great, and it was extremely dangerous to openly oppose it.
Including against B. Berezovsky.
Another question is that the representatives of the established structure in question
were concerned about their future, and, according to some solid assumptions, Boris Yeltsin
was "waste material" for them.
But who to replace it with? And, most importantly, how?
In any case, the security company NK Sibneft "Atoll", as it turned out in February 1999,
"took into development", including members of the family of Boris Yeltsin, listening to
telephone conversations.
And this is not an amateur activity. This is the active phase. These are orders given by
someone, these are the appropriate technical means, this is the execution of those orders.
The same B. Berezovsky did not personally listen to the negotiations, but his people
did.
Those who do not fully understand what "his people" are, can not read further.
Mr. B. Berezovsky, by the way, with two citizenship and connections with Chechen
"field commanders", which were already no secret at that time, by the way, held the post of
Executive Secretary of the CIS until March 1999.
Well, things are purely family, - if anyone has forgotten…
According to the source, there was "a whole team at the plant in Omsk!... ", where the
money for the oil products sold for cash was added up, and that " ... this is Berezovsky's
money personally!..."
In general, when analyzing the activities of B. Berezovsky, it becomes clear that the
interests of Russia are nothing to him. He always had his own interests and his own plans,
since he no longer waited for Korzhakov at the shower, but managed to get to power. It was
just that money was no longer enough for him. He famously swerved between his interests
and the interests of his Family, evading his... not even his interests, but his plans.
In P. Khlebnikov's book, A. Lebed's statement is quoted: "Berezovsky is the apotheosis
of abomination at the state level: it is not enough for this representative of a small clique that
has found itself in power to simply steal – he needs everyone to see that he steals with
complete impunity."
Everything is so.
And the same Boris Yeltsin was nothing to Boris Berezovsky.
However, this is a common place.
At the same time, it should not be forgotten that B. Berezovsky was and is a
corresponding member of the Academy of Sciences, a specialist in control systems.
If someone claims that a member of the Academy of Sciences can be a fool, just laugh.
B. Berezovsky is a systemically thinking and very smart adventurer and a scoundrel.
Now we see Boris Berezovsky in London with his true Chechen "friends". Now
everything is clear. It is already clear what kind of relationship bound him already in the
period to which this analysis is devoted. It is already clear what kind of company this is, and
what he was doing together with these people along the way even then.
P. Khlebnikov clearly indicates in his book that B. Berezovsky, for example, had an
indirect relationship to the wave of kidnappings in Chechnya.
And even the then president of Chechnya, A. Maskhadov, was outraged by this – for his
own reason.
Pavel Khlebnikov writes in his book (p. 262): "For the President of Chechnya, Aslan
Maskhadov... the wave of kidnappings became a real disaster."
Further, in the same place: "... Together with the president of neighboring Ingushetia,
Maskhadov told Russian and British newspapers: Berezovsky finances criminal groups of
Chechens, constantly arranging for them to pay a ransom."
Even then it was clear - and now there is no doubt about it - that B. Berezovsky had
quite "business" relations with the most "frostbitten" Chechen groups, and helped them. He
helped, and, by the way, already at that time he was in contact with the" ideologists " of the
movement, for example, with M. Udugov.
When analyzing his activities, you should always remember this.
But at the same time, it must be understood that B. Berezovsky simply used his
Chechen "friends" for his own purposes.
But in a number of cases, there is no reception against scrap.
Such a scrap was found on B. Berezovsky, with all his resourcefulness.
About Sibneft
A few words about the technical side of the issue.
Sibneft at the Omsk refinery produces not only GOST types of light petroleum products
subject to excise taxes, but also some other types, exciseless, determined by various
technical specifications (the so-called technological gasoline Omskfuel TU 38.301-19-102-97
and THAT ONE 38.401-58-221-98; gasoline fraction for pyrolysis of TU 38.301-19-108-97;
Nefras TU 38.401-58-219-98 etc., etc.), which often enter the market, including the market of
Kazakhstan, as good-quality types of fuel for carburetor engines. However, they are mostly
such, and even, according to sources, are poured into the railway. the tanks are "from the
same tanks as automobile gasoline," and all these TU are just a way to avoid paying excise
taxes, which was also directly indicated by sources.
Although, in general, each plant has a passport, which lists all the petroleum products
for the production of which it was designed and built.
(The author leaves open the question of how, why, and why a "company" for the
"production" of low - grade fuel was created in a Steep Hill near Omsk - it was created
literally next to such a giant as the Omsk Refinery. The question of the interaction between
Sibneft and this "enterprise" remains open, although there was evidence that the creation of
this "enterprise" was not an accident, and the "fruitful" interaction between this "enterprise"
and Sibneft was carried out "in full growth". According to some sources, and if we take an
enlarged scale, this "enterprise" is something like those two barrels connected by a clyster
tube, which brought a huge "economic effect" to the "underground millionaire" Koreiko).
In addition, according to the source, the option of sending oil products in the western
direction only through Kazakhstan was introduced into the Sibneft computer.
The local railway section on the territory of Kazakhstan administratively belongs to the
South Ural Railway, but the fact that the railway routes cross the state border twice opens up
the widest field for scams.
One of the employees at the Omsk refinery began to ask questions like: "Why are we
sending it this way?... ",- referring to the railway trains. In the evening, near the entrance, he
received a blow to the head, woke up tied by his hands and feet in a basement, in a standing
position, and unknown persons held him there for two days. He was then released, and
immediately resigned from the factory.
This is the source's story.
But this is so, by the way.
But in general, the very fact of the supply of the above-mentioned items of petroleum
products not to chemical plants makes us think about the responsibility for this not only for
buyers.
But, as it is said, during that period (1998-1999, and earlier, and later...), Sibneft did
what it wanted, and from the heads of the level of the head of the department, one could
hear a hysterically threatening hail: "We, we are playing on this field, we!..."
And the games, by the way, were not only simple, one-dimensional.
The games were quite serious, as the sources and subsequent analysis showed.
Here it would be possible to speculate about the schemes of "work" of Sibneft, about
the methods practiced by this Company to avoid taxes at that time; about such a mysterious
organization as Transnefteproduct, with a system of product pipelines created once for
strategic purposes for a great country; - to point out that Transnefteprodukt strives not to be
highlighted anywhere once again, and it is practically unknown how the product pipelines of
this organization are used - this is very closed information!; - remember that the product
pipelines also go to Kazakhstan, remember that Sibneft has a product pipeline that goes as
far as Novosibirsk... and then remember that the railway tariff is always taken from buyers
for the transportation of fuel and lubricants, which is more expensive than transportation by
pipe!
But we will not do this yet. For now, we just point out that in some cases, dealers of
Companies practice sending fuel "for someone". That is, the buyer who paid for fuel and
lubricants in Sibneft can be sent the corresponding position, for example, from Ufa.
The geography here is the widest.
There is a twofold interest here - to gain on the railway tariff, and to wind up, hide the
traces of scams.
(It should be added that the flow, clearing, and offset scheme of oil supplies from
producers to refineries is a common practice. The structure of the Transneft pipeline system
is such that when a company producing oil, for example, in Yamal, is "loaded" by the
ministry with "mandatory delivery" somewhere to the Angarsk refinery, it is clear that it is
not oil from Yamal that comes to this Far Eastern plant, especially since some pipelines do
not have connections between themselves. Other oil is received, the volumes of which are
credited to the "loaded" producer.
Well, the reader remembers about the "light mud", in which the employees of the
ministry substitute their piece of bread and butter!
Transneft also has its own great interest here - it is clear that in this way huge "virtual"
volumes are walking through the pipeline system, for the" transportation " of which a fee is
charged - and these are huge sums!
And plus, the "volume of losses" is growing!...
But surely the essence of the matter in Transneft is hidden behind such curly schemes,
behind so many papers, coefficients, and coefficients for coefficients that you can easily
braid the brains of anyone.
After all, all the money, as you know , is in papers!
However, the cross-flow credit scheme of oil supplies also creates all the conditions for
"left" pumping.)
("At the request of the workers", it is still necessary to say a few words about one of the
schemes with which Sibneft laundered money during domestic transactions with oil
products, and during deliveries, for example, to Kazakhstan.
No matter how sweet it was to send oil products to the West, to all sorts of "Protein
Trading", but Sibneft had to fulfill its" civic duty", providing Russian consumers with gasoline
and diesel fuel. And if only the "owners" of the company "had" from the products sent to the
West, then the second and third echelons of this Company also grasped something in the
schemes of selling petroleum products inside Russia, additionally helping the first echelon
to fuck from the domestic market. To do this, according to sources, almost every responsible
and semi-responsible employee of the Sibneft head office received permission to have one or
more "dealers". And in order for buyers of petroleum products to look for meetings and
"work" with "dealers", Sibneft has always kept the prices of petroleum products in the
subsidiary organization Omsknefteprodukt very high. These were always just indicative
prices - to scare them away-and in order to rip off more from budget organizations.
And let's imagine that there is such a company in the world... well, for example,
Topm-rket. Although there are a lot of such companies around Sibneft!… We are just taking
an example. And, for example, the firm "Top-rket" located somewhere... but at least in St.
Petersburg, in the city of Pavlovsk... somewhere on the streets of Vera Slutskaya, the house,
for example, 4, office, for example, 1. And took her cell phone, for example, (812) 147-26-84,
and Fax, for example, 147-26-83.
For example. From the lantern, of course... and, for example, there is a general
director in Topm-rket. For example, Ivanov I. E.
And, for example, Topm-rket has an agreement, for example, with Sibneft, or with a
third structure, and under this agreement Sibneft must or must give Topm-rket oil products.
For what? Who knows why. For the fact that someone once supplied Sibneft with salt
for drilling fluids, or clay, or just the sky is blue. "On account of offsets in the order of mutual
settlement." And maybe, in general, "on account of the income of the English king"…
And a semi-responsible employee of the head office of Sibneft has "his ""dealer" - well,
let it be just Borya Pupkin. Sometimes there is also some Lozhkin.
But that's not all. Borya Pupkin, in the person of some LLC, or as a private
entrepreneur, by permission and by agreement, has an agency agreement with Topm-rket,
in which Topm-rket is the Principal, and Pupkin is its Agent, and…
In short, a semi-responsible employee of the head office of Sibneft, after another
division in the head office, is "given" volumes (I almost wrote "volumes"): "You are a thousand
tons of the eightieth, six hundred tons of technological, eight hundred tons of the
ninety-second..."
And he calls the "dealer" and brings these figures. And gasoline is such a thing-buyers
are already waiting. They are also waiting for diesel fuel, fuel oil, aviation kerosene.
Well, with cash, everything is clear. It was not for nothing that there was " a whole
com-na-ta!…». But, however, sometimes dealers forced buyers to hand over cash to
Sberbank, in exchange for Sberbank bills. Under an agreement, for example, with
Topm-rket, that is, with the Principal, from the Principal's card or from another card , a third
organization, the dealer, who is also an Agent, received at the plant and organized the
shipment of petroleum products.
And on the promissory note of Sberbank, he issued an endorsement, - a transfer
record,- "on account of settlements with the Principal"..., - or some other...; - an
endorsement for a company that is registered-where?... That's right!… Which is registered in
Baikonur, or in some other offshore! And this is in addition to the fact that no taxes are taken
when calculating Sberbank bills!
Somewhere these bills are spinning, they are still issued endorsements…
And as a result, they are cashed out.
Well, it's not for nothing that Sberbank's promissory notes were invented! They were
originally intended for washing! These bills are the same as Stewed petroleum products!
Only the "asset" is not the oil refining and oil production capacities stolen by the
"privatizers", but the money of the people, which is stored in Sberbank.
"It is necessary to rely on the people, on the people, on their money!"
Thus, the money of each depositor of Sberbank was an instrument for committing
fraud.
This simply shows once again that Russia has been "hoeing" a very narrow circle of
people for many years, "an insignificant clique", according to the expression of the gene. The
swan.
But what a mouth this clique has! And what is the inner cynicism of each transaction!)
But also about the railway. It is known from the source that in some cases railway
routes can be sent to the buyer along a longer path, and thus they are guaranteed to be late
by the deadline, and this happens by agreement with the railway management. The railway
willingly pays a large fine for being late, the fine is cashed out, and everyone is happy.
This kind of possibility is already laid down in some of the railway's papers.
But this is so, little things.
(However, it is not a trifle that such a transport company as Russian World, which is a"
carrier " including Sibneft, has a branch, for example, in Kazakhstan. Why and why - they
will explain to you very quickly. But if a group of investigators on particularly important
cases, for example, the Prosecutor General's Office, in conjunction with the relevant official
organizations of Kazakhstan, will deal with this organization, it is quite possible that this
group of investigators will give their own explanation - radically different from the
explanation of the "cool carrier", which the "Russian World" considers itself to be).
However, it is known from the source – in 1998, large quantities of fuel were shipped
from the Omsk Refinery to Kyrgyzstan, and it is also known that it was for the production of
these fuels that the "left", unaccounted for oil of LUKOIL-Western Siberia LLC was received
for processing.
At that time, Artem Kirovich Kashin was the head of the oil department at Sibneft, who
shouted in the summer of 1999: "We, we are playing on this field, we!... ", and the head of the
department of petroleum products, - Yuri E. Sukhanov.
S. Vainshtok was the head of LUKOIL – Western Siberia LLC, and S. Yevlakhov was in
charge of oil under him.
And B. Berezovsky was the executive secretary of the CIS, while not looking away from
Sibneft, as sources reported - and such a R. Abramovich "worked" in Sibneft.
2. Kyrgyzstan
The northern and southern parts of Kyrgyzstan are separated by a mountain range
with passes of considerable height. Automobile communication for this reason and due to
the poor condition of the roads was previously extremely difficult. (Now a good road is being
built, which will solve the problem). Direct communication between the two parts was
carried out mainly by air transport.
Railway communication between the two parts is possible only by a roundabout route
through the Lugovaya station on the territory of Kazakhstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan.
Kyrgyzstan has reserves of gold, platinum, and rare earth metals. During the Soviet
years, opium poppies were grown on the territory of Kyrgyzstan in quantities sufficient to
meet the needs of the armies of the Warsaw Pact countries for painkillers. The largest
cartridge factory (ZIL) operated in Bishkek in Soviet times.
Tobacco and cotton grow in the south of Kyrgyzstan.
Cotton, if anyone does not know, is a strategic commodity. This is not only cotton yarn,
but also raw materials for the production of nitrated cellulose, and therefore smokeless
gunpowder. And this is not only ammunition, it is artillery fire and much more.
According to some sources, Kyrgyzstan has a very large public debt to Russia.
(In 2003, it was a question of transferring dozens of enterprises to the Russian side to
repay the debt to Russia. From some sources, the amount of debt is known to be about four
billion US dollars).
The volume of crude oil production in the southern part of Kyrgyzstan is about 50-60
thousand tons per year. Oil is processed at a straight-run plant (more precisely, a factory) of a
joint company; in the absence of catalytic cracking in this case, the yield of light petroleum
products is low, and the quality of oil is such that fuel oil has a high sulfur content and does
not have export conditions.
The monthly demand of Kyrgyzstan for petroleum products, in addition to those
produced on its territory, is 30-40 thousand tons. It should be particularly noted that this
amount includes the entire range of fuels and lubricants – gasoline, oils, aviation kerosene,
as well as diesel fuel, without which the economic life of the republic would be impossible.
The import duty on gasoline in 1998-1999 reached $75/ton, on crude oil $15/ton, and
in addition, there was a very large trade cheat.
Thermal power plants in Kyrgyzstan are designed to run on gas. Kyrgyzstan is largely
dependent on Uzbekistan for gas.
At the same time, the historically difficult relations with Uzbekistan make it difficult to
resolve issues on energy supplies. According to Kyrgyz sources, in addition to the historically
difficult relations that have arisen, there is a territorial dispute between Kyrgyzstan and
Uzbekistan that dates back to the Soviet period; - part of the territory of the south of
Kyrgyzstan was transferred to the administrative management of Uzbekistan for the
convenience of cotton growers. In the post-Soviet period, this territory (a wedge about 25 km
wide) was not returned, Uzbekistan declared it its territory, equipped the state. The border,
and now when traveling in the south, residents cross it twice (the Osh – Jalal-Abad road
(Jalal-Abad)).
But, thus, the situation in the region is extremely difficult.
Prices for petroleum products in recent years in Kyrgyzstan have been very high, even
in 1997-1998, during the maximum fall in oil prices on the foreign market.
In general, the question arises why the world oil price collapsed in those years.
Isn't it because the newfound "owners" of the Russian oil industry were in a hurry to
sell at any price, just to have time to fill their pockets?
However, the question is rhetorical.
By the beginning of 1999, several organizations of various forms of ownership were
engaged in the import and trade of petroleum products in Kyrgyzstan; - at the same time, the
largest was the organization of the State Enterprise "Kirghizgazmunayzat" (according to the
then Kyrgyz spelling, "Kyrgyzgazmunayzat"; -munai – oil; zat – gas (Turkic)) – then the
abbreviation KMZ is possible.
The general director of KMZ was a certain Jaisanbayev Shalkhar Samarkhanovich. His
deputy for some time was a certain Kolbayev Yusup. This organization, according to sources,
operated under the patronage of the former Deputy Prime Minister of Kyrgyzstan Boris
Ivanovich Silaev (who has now left Kyrgyzstan and settled in Russia, and even, according to
rumors, in Moscow), as well as the former Vice President of Kyrgyzstan Felix Kulov, who was
the mayor of Bishkek at that time.
Felix Kulov and Kolbaev, and Jianbai worked in a time when Kulov worked in southern
Kyrgyzstan, as Governor of the Chui region (1993-1997).
In 1997-1998 Kulov worked as the Minister of national security of the Kyrgyz Republic.
B. Silaev, at the same time, according to sources, has for a long time actively lobbied
for the interests of LUKOIL in Kyrgyzstan and contributed to the creation of supply chains on
the territory of Kyrgyzstan, petroleum products of Russian origin.
It should be noted that the nearest factories with significant production volumes are
Ferghana (Uzbekistan) and Shymkent (Kazakhstan).
Shymkent, or, in the old spelling, the Shymkent plant is also called "Shymkent Oil and
Gas Company" (SHNOS).
By the way, both Shalkhar Jaisanbayev and his deputy Yusup Kolbayev were previously
directly related to the LUKOIL-Kyrgyzstan branch.
According to some sources of that period, it was Felix Kulov who lobbied for the
appointment of Jaisanbayev to the post of general Director of the State Enterprise
"Kyrgyzgazmunayzat", and Jaisanbayev was actually in the rank of minister in this post.
Kulov's words that everything was wrong are perceived with very great distrust.
According to Kyrgyz sources, both Jaisanbayev and Kolbayev were "Felix Kulov's
people".
The analysis shows that it is possible that the creation of "Kyrgyzgazmunayzat "was
inspired precisely to distance the LUKOIL brand from direct responsibility for further
scams.
Well, the leaders of LUKOIL did not agree, well, what will you do!…
After the creation of KMZ, a scheme of interaction between KMZ and Russian
manufacturers was quickly created, including with the participation of foreign firms
controlled by one side or the other.
So, to avoid taxes, almost 100% of Russian-made fuels and lubricants were imported,
positioning themselves as stable gas condensate, a wide fraction of light hydrocarbons
(SHFLU), liquefied petroleum gas, etc.
There are reasons to believe that the varietal fuels and lubricants received by the raw
materials positions were sold as having been further processed at the straight-run plant
mentioned above - of course, they were processed only on paper.
On March 21, 1997, less than two months after the creation of the KMZ and the
appointment of Sh. Dzhaysanbayev's general director, Yusup Kolbayev, was killed in
Kyrgyzstan. Kolbayev's widow directly accused Dzhaysanbayev of organizing the murder.
She also warned a government representative on December 01, 1998 that Jaisanbayev
wanted to flee Kyrgyzstan, but he quietly left on December 04, 1998.
And, according to Kyrgyz sources, he has been in Moscow for at least some time since
December 1998, "visiting Sibneft".
Despite the fact that there is a significant amount of material for analyzing the actions
of Jaisanbayev in Kyrgyzstan, and for analyzing the situation in Kyrgyzstan at that time, we
will limit ourselves to comments for now:
- Felix Kulov had very big political ambitions, up to presidential ones. His work in the
rank of the Minister of National Security of the Kyrgyz Republic (1997-1998) coincides
with the period of active work of KMZ and Jaisanbayev as the General Director of
KMZ;
Jaisanbayev acted completely recklessly as the general director of KMZ, and this was
evidenced by both Kyrgyz sources and the data of the subsequent investigation of the
deputy commission of the Jogorku Kenesh (parliament) of Kyrgyzstan. (See the
article "Collusion" by G. Kuzmin in one of the Kyrgyz newspapers. This article is not
included in the appendices.)
However, due to a number of circumstances, including, I think, not least because of
the reluctance to somehow "offend" Russia and spoil relations with it, the Russian
participants in the scams, and the role of the Russian side in these scams, in general, in the
Kyrgyz press, including in the reports of representatives of the investigative authorities, are
rather hinted at.
The author of this analysis will show the system of relations that connected the
participants of scams in Kyrgyzstan, in Russia, and abroad, based on the testimony of
sources and on the analysis of contracts and contracts of the State Enterprise
"Kyrgyzgazmunayzat", as well as on open publications.
The author has no desire to somehow discredit well-known persons in Kyrgyzstan, or
interfere in the internal affairs of Kyrgyzstan, but there is reason to believe that the story of
the KMZ scams could have such far-reaching consequences that I would not like to think
about them.
The story of the "Kyrgyz scandal", known in Russia to a very limited number of people,
is actually part of a systemic crisis, and this story will be considered precisely as part of a
system of relations and far-reaching plans.
Definition: "A system is a complex of elements that are in interaction".
So, with the presence of the LUKOIL – Kyrgyzstan division in Kyrgyzstan, on January
29, 1997, by the order of President Akayev, the Kyrgyzgazmunayzat State Unitary Enterprise
was created.
Sh. Dzhaisanbaev was appointed General Director, Yuri Kolbaev as his deputy.
According to the statement of the leadership of the Ministry of National Security and
according to sources, F. Kulov was directly related to the appointment of Sh. Jaisanbayeva
for the position of General Director of KMZ.
Many more high-ranking officials were related to" Kyrgyzgazmunayzat".
Yes, here is an example from the article by B. Bukasheva "Hing-Shing, which translates
shish – to you, currency-to us" (Capital Market magazine, No. 1, 2000): "One of the main
inspirers and organizers of criminal actions of the SAC was the former Chairman of the
Board of the National Bank Marat Sultanov. None of the operations took place without his
active participation. And he had excellent opportunities for this. He performed alone in five
persons, holding the following positions:
Chairman of the Board of the National Bank of the Republic.
Chairman of the Board of Directors of SAC "Kyrgyzgazmunayzat".
Chairman of the Council of the Central Asian Bank for Cooperation and Development.
Consultant and agent of the Government for the implementation of monetary policy".
It should be noted that the National Bank also serves the external debt of Kyrgyzstan.
Kulov, by the way, stated that "...it was the president who signed the order on the
creation of the KMZ"!…
However, there is also reason to believe that even A. Akayev could not foresee which
figures would suddenly be interested in "working" with a small Kyrgyzstan, and what
collisions his own political game would lead to.
Anyway, after the creation of "Kyrgyzgazmunayzat" on January 27, 1997, events began
to unfold very quickly. KMZ has already signed Contract No. 1\1 between KMZ and Levette
Investments, Inc., registered in Nassau, Bahamas, on February 25, 1997; - as you can see,
everything was already ready for this; - that Levette Investments, Inc. undertakes to ensure
the conclusion of contracts and the supply of liquefied gas and hydrocarbon raw materials to
the Kyrgyz Republic with a total amount of up to 80,000 tons in 1997 and up to 180,000 tons in
1998.
"Levette Investments, Inc." in the contract indicates a bank account in Zurich,
Switzerland. KMZ specifies two accounts in the contract - in the Bank of New York (The),
USA, and an account in the Mercury JSCB in Bishkek.
From KMZ signed a contract Dzhaisanbaev Sh.S.
A certain Melikov V. V. signed a contract from Levette Investments, Inc. (the signature
on the sheets is in Latin V. Melikov).
"Levette Investments, Inc." under this contract has committed to provide KMZ with
services for the search for liquefied gas and hydrocarbon raw materials, to provide
financing, to make payments in the SLE of supply contracts.
What a kind company "Levette Investments, Inc."!
But the "good company" under this contract was to receive 16% of the price of
delivered products, and more for products delivered, or rather, the currency must be
transferred monthly to the account specified "Levette Investments, Inc."
That is, shipment to the KMZ was carried out without prepayment by KMZ.
Let us repeat again - what a kind company!
However, it turned out to be not so kind, because according to sources, before sending
the money for oil products, the attracted third-party payers still paid money. Simply put,
those who were able to frame the organizers of the scams.
(We note indifferently; - if this is even possible in relation to a case of violent death; less than a month after the signing of this contract, namely on March 21, 1997, the deputy of
Sh. Dzhaisanbaev, Yusup Kolbaev, was killed. But according to the provisions of Roman law,
which is the basis of the modern legal system, "after this" does not mean "because of this". It
is very significant that the investigation into the murder of Y. Kolbayev actually confirmed its
reverent attitude to such legal "postulates".
But, in the author's opinion, after signing the above-mentioned contracts, Kolbayev
simply became superfluous, and for one reason-a very big jackpot was expected, the widest
prospects for scams opened up. "Bolivar" is not exhausted yet, but the second "rider" "on
KMZ" was no longer needed.)
Well, "Levette Investments, Inc." probably really "helped". And even exceeded the plan.
She, this " Levette Investments, Inc.", with a sharp look from the Bahamas, found something
at JSC " DACO "(Russia, the city of Revda, Sverdlovsk region), and on April 05, 1997, in
Yekaterinburg, if you believe the paper, contracts were signed between JSC "DACO" and
KMZ:
Contract No. 27 \ SU-97 for the supply and transfer to the full economic management
of KMZ 240,000 tons of hydrocarbon raw materials for the production of ethylene;
Contract No. 28 \ SG-97 for the supply and transfer to the full economic management
of KMZ of 180,000 tons of stable gas condensate;
Contract No. 29\Sh-97 for the supply and transfer to the full economic management of
KMZ of 24,000 tons of a wide fraction of light hydrocarbons (SHFLU);
Contract No. 30\T-97 for the supply and transfer to the full economic management of
KMZ of 56,400 linear meters of pipes, including 3,265 tons with a diameter of 1020 mm.
By the way, pipes with a diameter of 1020 mm are pipes for main pipelines.
This is the most murky contract, we note.
And we should also add that, according to the impression, different product names,
which is reflected even in the numbers and names of contracts, hide either different names
of varietal products, or the interests of different persons and different groups of persons who
organized these deliveries.
With a sharp look from the Bahamas, Levette Investments, Inc. found no less than 101
railway echelons of various hydrocarbons in Russia for KMZ!
Danilov A.V. signed contracts from DACO, and the contracts specify an account with
the Ural Bank for Reconstruction and Development, Yekaterinburg, and a foreign currency
account with the Bank of New York.
On behalf of KMZ, S. S. Jaisanbayev signed contracts, and indicated accounts in the
Mercury JSCB and in the Bank of New York.
Here it is necessary to make a remark. For now, we will leave aside all these "DAKS",
numerous" Hing-Shings " that emerged later, and people who worked under different flags in
Russia and in Kyrgyzstan, sending oil products to Kyrgyzstan, and manipulating oil products
and money on the territory of Kyrgyzstan.
These are just performers, senders - and in conversations they themselves admitted
this.
There are much more serious people involved in this story as organizers, with much
more serious interests.
And more. From the fact that it is written on paper that the contract was signed in
Yekaterinburg, or from the fact that some kind of "Hing-Shing" is registered in China, it only
follows that this "Hing-Shing" is registered in China, and it is written on that contract that it
was concluded in Yekaterinburg. In the same way, it may be written in the contract that the
deliveries will be carried out, for example, from Surgut. But only for some reason deliveries
were made from Omsk!
It is important that in the summer of 1999, S. Yevlakhov, who then worked under S.
Weinstock at LUKOIL – Western Siberia LLC, himself stated: "We worked with
Kirghizgazmunayzat!…
To make the future clearer, we recall that it is known from the source that illegal,
unaccounted for, "left" oil supplies from LUKOIL – Western Siberia LLC were made to the
Omsk Refinery, and illegal, unaccounted processing of this oil was carried out , and the
products of processing were shipped to Kyrgyzstan, with the positioning of fuel as exciseless
fuel!
Whether fuel and lubricants, including from Ufa, were dispensed, and how they were
sent, as a set-off of mutual obligations, or otherwise , is also a question for the investigation.
But knowing the content of the contract between Levette Investments, Inc. and KMZ,
as well as the source's information about illegal oil supplies, its illegal processing and the
shipment of illegally positioned high-grade petroleum products as exciseless fuels, we can
draw several important conclusions:
- Levette Investments, Inc. did not pay for any petroleum products at all for KMZ,
since these were unaccounted products. It's just a wash. This is actually stolen oil and
illegal transactions with refined products.
The analysis shows that the 16% mentioned in the contract over the price of the
delivered products is, in all probability, a payment for illegal processing.
Products were sent to the address of KMZ, in all probability, by redirecting railway
echelons, or according to a more complex scheme.
- - Despite the fact that according to Kyrgyz sources, the sale of fuel and lubricants on
the territory of Kyrgyzstan was carried out by KMZ at very high prices, taxes and
excise taxes for imported fuel and lubricants were not paid to the budget of the
republic under various pretexts. According to absolutely reliable data, some of the oil
products supplied from the Omsk refinery were driven into the territory of
Kyrgyzstan by smuggling trains, and it is absolutely clear who did it. If we take into
account the source's data that varietal fuels and lubricants conforming to GOST were
sent to Kyrgyzstan, then at the excise tax rate of 75 US dollars per ton of imported
"gasoline, light and medium distillates and other gasoline" (see the relevant
regulatory acts of the Kyrgyz Republic), provided that only 444,000 tons of
hydrocarbons were delivered under contracts No. 27, 28 and 29 of April 05, 1997 with
JSC "DACO", it can be assumed that the direct damage to the budget of Kyrgyzstan
only for unpaid excise taxes is more than thirty-three millions of US dollars.
- Russia's losses in this case alone amount to an immeasurably large amount, since in
fact the oil that was being processed was stolen from the depths. If we assume that
only light oil products were supplied to Kyrgyzstan, which are only some part of all
refined products, and take this part equal to 25%, then about two million tons of oil
were stolen and sent for illegal processing only in the "Kyrgyz case". There is reason
to believe that heavy fractions of processing were also sold illegally, including for
cash.
When the source told the author that there is "a whole team at the plant!... "in which
there is money "personally Berezovsky", he smiled and did not believe it.
But now we're not so funny anymore, right?
And one more important note. From the source's testimony, there is reason to believe
that third parties in Russia were also involved in the scams, who were attracted by the
temptation to earn more than in other transactions, with the condition to pay for "oil
products sent to Kyrgyzstan". That is, they seemed to participate in a certain program. The
source showed that there were persons who "... invested the last money...".
Well, the last, not the last, but in this way the organizers insured themselves by having
money in their possession even before sending, and leaving papers of some contracts on the
hands of the attracted payers.
Although, in principle, the interests of these people are certainly infringed, and they
need to address claims, including to the organizers.
So, according to various sources, including sources, the following persons were
directly involved in the scam from the Russian side: Semyon Mikhailovich Vainshtok
(Samuel Moiseevich), Sergey Kimovich Yevlakhov (both LUKOIL – Western Siberia), Artem
Kirovich Kashin (head of the Sibneft Oil Department), and according to sources and by
position Yuri Yevgenyevich Sukhanov (head of the Sibneft Oil Products Department), and
vereyatno, a number of other persons. The fact is that the "left pumping" could not have
come without the knowledge of the then leadership of Transneft. And at that time, the head
of Transneft was a certain Saveliev, whom Weinstock "devoured". I believe that the
investigation will take into account the cooperation of Saveliev-without making promises to
him!
The organizers of the scam are behind the company" Levette Investments, Inc.". Later
appearing firms, such as "Pirol '" ("Pirol"), "Investal" (and even a few "Investorov"), having a
"claim" the government of Kyrgyzstan, is only clones "Levette Investments, Inc."!
And this "Levette Investments, Inc." probably had long reposed in the Lord… Leaving,
however, in Contract No. 1 \ 1, in addition to the legal address in the Bahamas, also prosaic,
quite Russian contact phone numbers (242) 325-09-21, 325-09-22, and fax number (242)
325-09-11…
(Interestingly, if you calculate that the code (242) is international, then dialing
8-10-242..., you should get to the Congo in theory!(To the Congolese Republic)… But if you
dial 8-242-325 in Moscow... and so on, using the last two digits of the numbers, I remember,
as an extension, then you get to phones from which no one wants to talk to you about
anything! There were some security firms there in 2001.) There is another fax number on the
sheets of Appendix No. 4 to Contract No. 1\1, - (095) 433-03-75, and Appendix No. 4 itself is
dated July 3, 1998.
For some reason, a frightened voice answered this number: "I don't know anything!... I
don't know anything and I don't want to know!…»
It is clear that you can enter any number into the fax memory.
But according to the MGTS database of 2000 (version 15.0)," for the phone " 433-03-75,
registered at the address Mozhaiskoe highway, d 39, sq. 129, were listed:
- Kogan Mikhail Ilyich
- Kraiz (Kraiz is not excluded) Leonid Mikhailovich
I will note that I have quite extensive information about another Kogan (maybe not a
relative). A decent prosecutor will be very interested in her, too.
But now the author will ask readers to focus and fully comprehend all that the sources
testified about - and what is described above. "Left oil"," left " processing… Recall and
comprehend that the monthly demand of Kyrgyzstan for petroleum products is 30-40
thousand tons, and the contracts provided for the supply of 444,000 tons... And realize that
the above-mentioned contracts with KMZ have the following meaning, - not a separate
enterprise..., not a city..., not a region..., - but at least a small, but a COUNTRY (!), at least a
small, but a STATE (!) the organizers of the scam supplied STOLEN PETROLEUM PRODUCTS
for a WHOLE YEAR!
And the only one who could prevent this, who could, and who was able to speak out
against the scammers, was the President of Kyrgyzstan A. Akayev.
Despite the fact that B. Berezovsky, S. Vainshtok, S. Yevlakhov, Yu. Sukhanov, F. Kulov,
B. Silaev, M. Sultanov participated in the case..., did they need A. Akaev then?
There is only one answer – A. Akayev was no longer needed by them, but even very
dangerous. He was "superfluous", as Yusup Kolbayev was once "superfluous", but for a
different reason. Only Askar Akayev could "swat" the entire system of relations and
connections for laundering huge amounts of money through Levette Investments, Inc., KMZ
and Kyrgyzstan!
But from all this, draw a conclusion, what, so to speak, "quality" are all those
scammers - both B. Berezovsky, S. Weinstock, and Yu. Sukhanov and others.
These are international scammers.
However, a few more comments about KMZ and working with DACO.
On June 10, 1998, Agreement No. 5 was signed between DACO and KMZ.
According to this agreement, "Kyrgyzgazmunayzat" was considered a "Buyer" under
several contracts in 1996. (For JV "TAIS" under Contract No. 1D-96; for JV "TAIS" under
Contract No. 18\GF-1173; for MP "Vectra" under Contract No. 15A; for GPO
"Chuigazmunayzat" under Contract No. 42D-96.
See Agreement No. 5 and the corresponding agreements and contract).
Under Contract No. 5 (clause 3.1), KMZ recognized the debt to DACO in the amount of
18,938,259-74 (Eighteen million nine hundred and thirty-eight thousand two hundred and
fifty-nine US dollars, 74 cents), including a fine of 15,518,270-64 (Fifteen million five hundred
and eighteen thousand two hundred and seventy US dollars, 64 cents).
The Agreement No. 5 provides (in clause 4.5) that the debt to JSC "DACO" will be
transferred to the current account of "DACO" in the Republic National Bank of New York.
The meaning of this Agreement No. 5 is that old debts, including those of private firms,
were hung up on the newly created state enterprise. And a fine of more than fifteen and a
half million dollars was accrued on the newly created state enterprise, which de facto and de
jure could have nothing to do with the previous deliveries!
This is an internal matter of Kyrgyzstan, how to treat the fact that such a penalty is
charged to a state enterprise - moreover, under similar circumstances.
Why this happens-there can only be thoughts and assumptions.
I have heard in ... the bathhouse that this is often done in order to launder public
funds into a personal pocket in this way.
(I think we noted above that "... the widest opportunities for scams opened up"?)
But Kyrgyzstan has its own authorities, let them sort it out.
However, we note that Sh. Jaisanbayev was the deputy general director of the state
enterprise "Chuigazmunayzat", in the south of Kyrgyzstan, under the general director Yusup
Kolbayev, and they worked very closely with Felix Kulov when he was the governor of the
Chui region, as there is a lot of evidence, including Kulov himself.
And once again, we recall that the city of Surgut mentioned in Contract No. 5
(paragraph 6.3), according to the source, had nothing to do with the supplied fuels and
lubricants. Omsk, possibly Ufa, using a substitution scheme - that's where, according to the
source, the fuel was supplied from. And at the same time, fake certificates of Surgutneftegaz
were used!
Whatever it was, Jaisanbayev "managed" completely recklessly. However, there is
reason to believe that his activities, as well as the activities of persons and companies
associated with KMZ, were under the control of the relevant structures, in which very
modest people serve. They usually work for the president, and consider any situation from
the positions of the state.
Deals, scams, money, debts, money…
The emerging political ambitions of well-known persons close to the KMZ…
And plus the invisible or even visible support of the Russian companies involved in
those scams.
According to Kyrgyz sources, during the leadership of KMZ, Jaisanbayev ordered a
book about himself and his clan. (For the East, this means a lot!...)
According to the same sources, for a whole year (!) unnamed "Berezovsky's people"
made every possible effort to buy a TV channel in Kyrgyzstan. (When trying to find out
exactly who these "Berezovsky's people" are, information on this subject was closed to the
author by sources).
The completely illegal activity of a group of persons, former subordinates of F. Kulov,
who used special equipment to listen to telephone conversations of prominent
entrepreneurs and, according to Kyrgyz television, A. Akayev himself and his family
members, "...with the aim of seizing power...", according to the first reports of the same
Kyrgyz television, belongs to the same period.
As it was subsequently reported in the press, the special equipment was purchased
with (it’s unclear whose) money from the Russian companies "NOVO", "NELK",
"Grant-systems and technologies".
For those interested, I inform you about the following. NPC firm "NELK" in 1999 was
located 115409, Moscow, Kashirskoe sh., 72, bldg. 2. The phones of NPC "NELK" at that time
were 324-08-15, fax 323-51-01. The field of activity was designated as "information

But these are just comments-for those who are interested. But pay attention to the
name of CJSC Trading House "Interneft", and to the "sphere of activity" in 2007. Is it someone
from "yesterday"?
In general, taking into account the fact that the supply of fuel and lubricants was
actually carried out by Sibneft, and B. Berezovsky, even while serving as the CIS executive
secretary, continued to oversee his business, all those involved in the KMZ scams can be
called "Berezovsky's people".
And, apparently, this is not a figure of speech.
According to the sum of direct and indirect information received from sources, it can
be assumed that Alekperov, knowing about the persons involved in the scams, used all his
influence to attack S. Weinstock and S. Yevlakhov.
One of the knowledgeable sources, who has worked in the oil industry for many years,
expressed himself in this way: "Uh-eh! ... This Vainstock is very smart-ass! ... He was aiming
for Vagit's place! ..."
Anyway, since about November 1998, articles criticizing the high prices for fuel and
lubricants, as well as criticizing Sh. Jaisanbayev and the style of work of KMZ. (For the East,
this also says a lot!)
The widow of Yusup Kolbayev also looked after Jaisanbayev with interest, who in early
December 1998 declared that Jaisanbayev wanted to flee Kyrgyzstan.
He really left in early December 1998, and, according to sources, since that time he has
been in Moscow, "visiting Sibneft".
In mid-January 1999, President A. Akayev signed a decree on the removal of
Jaisanbayev from the post of director of the KMZ (UP 7 of January 15, 1999).
An article appeared in the Kyrgyz press in which Jaisanbayev was accused of having
run away with either 18 or 18.5 million dollars stolen.
Jaisanbayev started calling friends from Moscow to the government of Kyrgyzstan with
something like these words: "Yes, I didn't run away, but I'm in Moscow!… What eighteen
million dollars?... Yes, the budget owes me twenty-five million dollars!…»
The friends replied that they themselves could not understand anything, but they
advised not to twitch and wait until they found out everything , since the action to centralize
the supply of fuel and lubricants was being prepared in the presidential office in deep
secrecy, and there were no leaks on this account.
Here we need to digress and say a few words about Russian affairs.
On February 2, 1999, employees of the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian
Federation, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the FSB conducted searches in the Moscow
office of Sibneft and in the private security firm Atoll. Materials confirming the fact of
surveillance of many well-known persons were seized, and it was reported on television that
the seized materials also confirm the fact of surveillance of Boris Yeltsin and members of his
family. Special equipment for listening was also seized.
(Well, "the sons of Yeltsin's nest"!...)
But at the same time, on February 2, 1999, Boris Yeltsin, after leaving the hospital,
signed a decree on the release from the post of Prosecutor General Yu.Skuratova.
The story of the resignation is very murky.
However, it was reported ("Profile" No. 4 (126) of February 8, 1999) that B. Berezovsky
blackmailed T. Dyachenko with threats to publish recordings of her telephone conversations
in Russia or abroad, which promised her great trouble ( and, probably, not only for her...),
and T. Dyachenko insisted on the resignation of Yu. Skuratov, who initiated the theme of
"Atoll".
In this episode, B. Berezovsky won a local victory.
He managed to "bend" Yeltsin!
But in fact, both the FSB, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the Prosecutor General's
Office saved Boris Yeltsin!
But from this episode it is clear that B. Berezovsky played big at that time. He was
going all-in. Isn't it because he has very few options now?
This is true. He was already just "brushing off" anything that got him.
He lost. He's already lost everything.
There and then the "domino principle" began to work. In an unfavorable direction for
B. Berezovsky.
Yeltsin's son-in-law Okulov, by the way, used the situation in February 1999 to attack
the "Berezovsky people" at Aeroflot.
Tobacco is still apart…
Let's return to Kyrgyzstan.
On February 23, 1999, A. Akayev issued a decree "On urgent measures to provide the
republic with oil products", and on March 9, 1999, his order on the creation of the State
Enterprise "Munai" was issued.
Around this period, as the source told in detail, Akayev summoned Deputy Prime
Minister B. Silayev to him, and told him briefly and clearly: "Well, what?… You've already
stolen enough!... If you want to live in peace in Kyrgyzstan, you should not be seen or
heard!..."
B. Silaev immediately agreed with the proposal, which could not be refused.
The irony is that B. Silayev also signed Resolution No. 141 and Resolution No. 158 in
support of Akayev's decisions on the creation of the State Enterprise "Munai", as well as a
number of other documents on this topic.
But this is so ... Everything is from the words of the source ... But the one who knows.
Which, among other things, took some modest participation in the development of the
"Temporary Regulation on the Procedure for the Import and Wholesale of Petroleum
Products, as well as Raw Materials and Components for Their Production on the Territory of
the Kyrgyz Republic," published on March 30, 1999 in the Kyrgyz press.
The following appointments were made in the established SE "Munai". ​General
Subanbekov Bakirdin Zhamalovich was appointed General Director, retaining his general
post in the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the republic. Nikolai Pavlovich Efremov was
appointed his deputy, supervising the north of the republic from Bishkek, and Uzgenbai
Matievich Sultanov began to supervise the southern part of the republic from Jalal-Abad.
Later, when the situation calmed down, N.P. Efremov became the General Director of
SE "Munai".
B. Zh. Subanbekov later became the Minister of Internal Affairs of the Kyrgyz
Republic.
(According to later information, Boris Silaev moved to Moscow (they reported this: "He
ran away to Moscow, a dog!... "); and even, as the same Kyrgyz sources reported, he began to
work "in the Luzhkov team". According to the source, in one of the special services of
Kyrgyzstan, the following was stated to him in relation to B. Silayev: "We will leave Silayev
alone for now!… Bye!...").
For the author of this analysis, it is no secret that the events in Russia in 1999 and the
events in Kyrgyzstan in 1999 are connected with each other.
At least because it was at the request of A. Akayev that Boris Yeltsin dismissed Boris
Berezovsky from the post of CIS Executive Secretary at the beginning of March 1999, "...for
regular actions that go beyond the powers of the CIS executive Secretary."
The reports also indicated that "... B. Berezovsky, while in this high post, acted
exclusively in the interests of his business..."
In simple words, this means - "I carried out my own policy"…
As for Jaisanbayev, according to Kyrgyz sources of that time, he was killed in Moscow.
The reports of the official Kyrgyz press that he periodically calls the Ministry of Internal
Affairs of the republic were not taken into account. The mood in the circles involved in
working with fuel and lubricants in Kyrgyzstan itself was expressed in the following words:
"Well....This is Sibneft!…"
According to later published information, Jaisanbayev was allegedly seen in Moscow,
that he allegedly lives quietly in Alma-Ata, that he has a business there, that he visited
Kyrgyzstan for the funeral of a relative.
There is no reason to believe-neither the rumors about his murder, nor the
publications.
But in general, the experience of life shows that rumors are often more truthful than
ordered publications. Not to mention the fact that virtual personalities can also exist on the
Internet.
This is despite the fact that the author Sh. Jaisanbayev, as an individual, wishes to
always be healthy.
But let's continue.
In the summer of 1999, a group of former subordinates of F. was arrested in
Bishkek.Kulova, who used special equipment to listen to telephone conversations, including
A. Akayev, - as local television immediately reported, - "with the aim of seizing power in the
republic."
In Kyrgyzstan, an investigation has begun in the case of F. Kulov, which ended with his
arrest, a closed court and a sentence in early 2001 to seven years in prison with confiscation
of property.
(At the beginning of 2002, at the request of F. Kulov, the sentence was revised, and he
was already sentenced to 10 years in prison.
It should be noted that according to the Kyrgyz sources following well-known in
Kyrgyzstan the Bank "Mercury", and a parallel line, and a direct continuation of the "cause
"of Kyrgyzgasmunaizat"".
It should be noted that the special services of Kyrgyzstan in the summer of 1999 were
questioned had to "case KMZ" persons from among the "small fry" (e.g. V. Shevchuk).
However, it seems that precisely because the threads led to Russia, to major figures, these
interrogations for "small fry" resulted in only a strong fright in 1999 (see below)).
And in Russia, in the summer of 1999, the disassembly of the "Kyrgyz scandal" and the
scams of a number of persons with "left" oil and "left" refining continued.
And at the same time in some other cases.
The scandal in the "narrow circle" was grandiose!
But the meaning of all the events of the scandal was far from simple!
But the most interesting thing is that this is why the scandal did not become known to
the public at that time. And no one connected the events that took place in a small
Kyrgyzstan and the subsequent scandalous resignations and appointments in Russia.
But the "Kyrgyz scandal" known in the "narrow circle" was not only "Kyrgyz"!
Since it is customary to call it "Kyrgyz" in the "narrow circle", we will also use this
term.
We will fully understand what kind of scandal this is, and why it is a scandal-a little
later.
In the first days of August 1999, T. Dyachenko visited the Sibneft office in Moscow. A
witness of the excitement that was going on in the Sibneft office in anticipation of the visit
described it exclusively with unprintable expressions.
(It should be noted that at least some of the persons involved in the "Kyrgyz scandal"
were already waiting for this visit, or something similar, with excitement in the summer of
1999. In other words, they expected a showdown, as a result of which they could be deprived
of not only their positions, but also their lives. And this is not a joke.)
According to some reports, then there was a showdown between the family of Boris
Yeltsin and Sibneft, and in general - with the Family!; – and for the "Atoll", and for plans for
Russia, and for plans for Kyrgyzstan.
(Note that after the beginning of the "Kyrgyz scandal", the FSB of Russia interrogated,
for example, the general director of the DACO JSC, V. Kod, and a number of other persons
involved, according to the testimony of V. Kod himself. That is, the FSB was completely "in
the subject").
And in Sibneft, according to solid assumptions, Tatyana Dyachenko was simply poked
with her nose at the fact that she, Boris Yeltsin and his "inner circle" are also dirty around,
and "tied" with them by common affairs - and there is no need to twitch!…
T. Dyachenko then went to Sibneft in a very bad mood. But she no longer came out as
the daughter of Herself, as she still imagined herself to be, but just came out as an
accomplice, who herself has a lot of things on her soul.
The disassembly showed that the so-called Family itself has become the force that no
longer needs the person who gave birth to it.
In short, the result was that when Boris Yeltsin realized what was going on, it turned
out that he no longer had anyone to rely on - from among those who had been rubbing
around for a long time, who were his "cashiers", and so on and so forth.
Not only that, they poked their nose into something bad, and put it in its place.
After all, they wanted to devour Boris Yeltsin, just devour him!
That's all, the air came out of Boris Yeltsin. He has become an absolute political
corpse. And even he got it. Because the retinue, as you know, makes a king. The “nestlings of
Yeltsin's nest” snapped back, showing their asshole, similar to the asshole that gave birth to
them. The circle is complete.
(But in general, Boris Yeltsin found himself between an anvil and a hammer - on the
one hand, the Family, on the other hand, the state special services, who, of course, did not
like what was happening in the country.)
As you can see, having realized what he avoided thanks to, among other things, the
FSB, of which V.V. Putin was then the head, (and most likely they just explained it to him), and having appreciated his role in his actual salvation, Boris Yeltsin, whom the lured
commentators flatteringly called a "political animal"; - Boris Yeltsin, in a panic, driven by a
sense of revenge, rushed towards the special services. On August 9, 1999, by his decree, he
urgently introduced the third post of deputy prime minister, and by the same decree, V.V.
Putin received this position. On the same day, the office of S. Stepashina was dismissed, V.V.
Putin was appointed acting head of the government, and Yeltsin named V.V. Putin as his
successor as President of the Russian Federation.
In general, the author is absolutely convinced that Boris Yeltsin was absolutely unfree
in his decisions on appointing V.V. Putin as his "successor".
Such were the showdowns in August 1999!
And all these showdowns are the consequences of the "Kyrgyz scandal"! ...
Now you understand that this is not only the "Kyrgyz scandal"?…
Well, what happened at a lower level? ...
And following the results of the showdowns at a lower level, Russian "private"
Companies, of course, decided that it was impossible to leave people who were directly or
indirectly related to the "Kyrgyz scandal" in their places, and it was necessary to distance
themselves from these people.
It's like "we have nothing to do with it!..."
And, besides, as it was said, there is reason to believe that this was one of the goals of
V. Alekperov – in relation to S. Weinstock and S. Yevlakhov.
As mentioned above, there are even direct confirmations of this interpretation of the
version of V. Alekperov's participation in the" Kyrgyz scandal", but these are sources from the
special services. (But at the same time, by the way, in the second quarter of 1999, LUKOIL
shook up and replaced middle-level managers in the divisions related to oil supplies for
insurance).
Anyway, S. Weinstock was expelled from LUKOIL, and LLC LUKOIL – Western Siberia
was transformed into a joint stock company. (According to the press!…).
In general, the issue of S. Weinstock's expulsion from LUKOIL was resolved even
earlier than June 1999, since it was around June 1999 that an interview with Weinstock was
recorded on Kogalym television, in which he stated that he would work at Transneft.
However, this interview was shown on television not immediately, but around October 1999,
when S. Weinstock had already established himself in a new position. It is interesting that in
this interview with Weinstock launched into a lengthy discussion about the fact that he is a
humanist, and now he has reached such an understanding of nature that he even regrets
that he once gave instructions to poison mosquitoes in the swamps surrounding Kogalym.
Arguing that he was moving to a new job at Transneft, he transparently hinted that it was too
early to write him off, since the case is known from history…
And he told a well-known story that once a Conclave was going to elect a Pope, and the
cardinals could not come to a common opinion for a long time, who should be the Pope. And
in the end, they decided to choose the weakest in health, for reasons that he would soon die
anyway… But he survived everyone!…
But before S. Vainshtok's transfer to Transneft, it was still necessary to devour the then
president of Transneft, D. Savelyev, (a Kinder-surprise man, as sources have repeatedly
commented about him), and just before June 1999, an underhand struggle began to free up a
place for S. Vainshtok in this state-owned joint-stock company, since they were kicked out of
the "private" company for scams.
It is clear that Sibneft could not accept him in any way - they were thinking how to get
rid of Yu. Sukhanova!…
(It is known from sources about Yu. Sukhanov that he is a relative of some major
official from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Moreover, the source reported that Sibneft
itself was created with the assistance of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. However, another
thought also comes to mind - is he not a relative of the Sukhanov, for whom Boris Yeltsin,
who was expelled from his posts during the perestroika period, worked at one time?…)
There is direct information from the source that the source is together with Yu.
Sukhanov visited the dacha of V. Zhirinovsky, in search of help. There was even a touching
story about how the owner of the dacha presented his book about the "last throw to the
south" to the source. However, the author took this information with complete distrust, - the
source is a good guy, but he had a lot of general prison time, - albeit on gasoline cases.
However, whatever it was, but V. Zhirinovsky, who spoke about some reason in the
State Duma around June 1999, suddenly said for no reason at all: "In general, who is
Saveliev?... Sitting on such a cash flow!... But who is he?!...".
And after that, others came in time...
D. Savelyev later publicly stated that he was summoned by R. Abramovich and in an
ultimatum form received a demand to leave his post. But he showed firmness and did not
agree.
But the "left" pumping could not be carried out without the knowledge of D. Savelyev!
But where to put S. Weinstock?
The undercover activity continued, and in September 1999, V. Kalyuzhny, who was
then the Minister of Fuel and Energy, (and about whom sources unequivocally said that he
was "a man of Sibneft"), signed an order on the removal of D. Saveliev and the appointment
of S. Weinstock to the post of president of Transneft.
Well, everyone remembers the television reports from the Clearing, the crowds of
police colonels...colonels... colonels… Everyone remembers that for S. Weinstock, the door
was opened with a saw-grinder…
And no one understood-why, how?…
But now you know everything!
Later, in the deep autumn of 1999, S. Weinstock took S. Yevlakhov to Transneft, who at
first worked there, I remember, as the head of the oil department, and then became the
vice-president of Transneft.
The "sweet couple" reunited.
And before that, after the expulsion of S. Weinstock, S. Yevlakhov "...no longer decided
anything," according to his own admission.
Recalling the showdown in the autumn of 1999 in the head office of LUKOIL about
their scams, S. Yevlakhov complained: "They almost kicked me out then!...", meaning
"almost kicked out of a narrow circle".
But over time, he became more successful in his new post at Transneft, and began to
declare: "Yes, I am!... Yes, I am a statesman!…"
Yu. Sukhanov was also expelled from Sibneft, but he is a proven man, a family man, he
knows something, and after maneuvers, he was appointed vice president for petroleum
products at the state company Slavneft.
And now he is the president of the state oil Company Slavneft.
An interesting situation is when state organizations become a cesspool for thieving
employees of "private" Companies!
And in LUKOIL, without any direct question, a high-ranking employee of this
Company, Robertus, at the end of 2000, said this about the participation of S. Weinstock and
S. Yevlakhov in the "Kyrgyz scandal": "It's all of them!… It's all Weinstock and Yevlakhov!...
This is all their business!…»
The author of the analysis is a skeptic. He may even admit that many people, at
different times, in different cities of Russia and abroad, may talk about something with
intent, wanting to hide the true state of affairs.
However, for the case of what is mentioned above, he is inclined to believe that it was
possible to restore the truthful picture of the participation of the Russian side in the "Kyrgyz
scandal", and to identify the persons involved in it.
But, according to the author, one of the sources in the Kyrgyz special services said: "We
will detonate this "bomb" when we need it!…"
What kind of "bomb" is this?…
Therefore, a little further we will look at that story from a slightly different angle, but
for now we will supplement the analysis with information about certain persons.
First, it is absolutely certain that the special services of Kyrgyzstan know everything
about the scandal, no matter how evasively they say that "it is not possible yet", "but we are
working"... - and so on.
Everything, everything is known, everything!…
And in Kazakhstan, the author of this analysis received an answer from a completely
knowledgeable person to a direct question about the attitude to S. Vainshtok, that: "Yes, we
are Vainshtok at any time!...", and an eloquent but indecent gesture followed.
We can say with almost absolute certainty that all the frauds with redirects of railway
routes, if they were, are known to the special services of Kazakhstan.
Isn't that why the issue of dividing the bottom of the Caspian Sea was decided by
Nazarbayev at the time when he was steaming in the bath with Yeltsin, and Yeltsin handed
over everything that was possible!
(The irony is that in the future, V. Kalyuzhny became the chairman of some
commission for the settlement of issues related to the conflict laid down in Yeltsin's decision
on the bottom of the Caspian Sea!
To complete the picture, and so that readers understand what an "agent of influence"
is, the author will illustrate the idea with an example. The fact is that V. Kalyuzhny has a
nephew. And the apple does not fall far from the apple tree, and V. Kalyuzhny's nephew,
being the second person in one of the firms engaged in oil refining and trading in petroleum
products, kept a "black" balance in this company, which, of course, is very different from the
"white" one. (The company's office is located near the Taganskaya metro station). And
somehow it so happened that one of the... in short, he had something about security in his
ID card, sat alone at their computer for a few minutes. And a couple of days later, he asked
for an apology from his nephew Kalyuzhny, also the same Kalyuzhny, for taking a blank
floppy disk without asking. And he said that it is very bad to have two balances.
In the future, as the source told the author, V. Kalyuzhny's nephew answered his
requests for something briefly and clearly, always with consent, and something like this:
"There is! That's right! It will be executed!…"
No kidding, mind you.
Well, employees with certificates "for security" have their own methods of "working
with people". But this is just a small-grained "relative", to whom the uncle "gave a ruble". And
there are no sentiments at the state level. Any countries , including those countries of our
"friends" in which some "state people" keep laundered money, these countries do not
maintain their special services in order to make films about them. And they contain them,
among other things, so that they, like wolves, cling to the throat of anyone at the right
moment, and snatch from him the solution THEIR country needs.
And, - advice.
Forget about such things as "commercial secret" or "bank secret" forever! They do not
exist and cannot exist, - when it comes to "state people" who are related to making important
decisions.)
In the author's opinion, such persons as S. Weinstock, S. Yevlakhov, Yu. Sukhanov are
currently not "state people", but simply agents of influence.
Considering the issue more broadly, the same can be said about all Tanya Dyachenko,
Abramovich, Khodorkovsky, Berezovsky, and others.
And this despite the fact that earlier he considered the term "agents of influence" an
invention of the special services!
But let's continue.
According to sources, S. Yevlakhov, while still at LUKOIL – Western Siberia LLC,
actively worked with a certain Melikhova (Melikova) Natalia Evgenievna, (Moscow,
"Finpromtrading". According to the Internet, the address for some time was allegedly B.
Ordynka, 14-2). According to the source, it could receive huge volumes of oil from S.
Yevlakhov without prepayment.
(For some reason, I remembered the signature of V. Melikov on the Contract No. 1\1
between the State Enterprise "Kyrgyzgazmunayzat" and " Levette Investments, Inc.".
However, there may not be a relationship - you never know similar surnames!)
But, according to a source from the special services, shortly after S. Yevlakhov's
transfer to Transneft, the aforementioned Melikhova (Melikhova) called a certain A. one
night and asked him to urgently bring 15 thousand dollars to Transneft. He went to his office,
took the rubles, changed them at the night exchanger and brought them to the Transneft
building on Polyanka. At 4 o'clock in the morning, Melikhova came out, took the money and
explained that it was necessary to pay off the employees who were left to perform urgent
work.
There is reason to believe that it was on that night that this sweet company was
cleaning up the "tails" of its stormy previous activities.
But, as the song says, nothing on Earth passes without a trace.
S. Yevlakhov himself cautiously admitted that in Transneft "...I was engaged in ... cases
of ... "left" pumping...".
Knowing the established procedures in the oil industry, we can say with confidence
what this means - he hid "his" "left" pumping, and found "others" in the documents of
Transneft , for the purpose of subsequent pressure and blackmail of other Companies and
persons involved in those pumping.
Note that the "left" pumping, according to available information, is hidden by
"smearing" the pumped "left" volumes on the balance sheet of several oil companies.
There is, however, another way.
And if you hear screams that "this is impossible!...", "multi-stage accounting and
control system!...",- smile.
This is not only possible , but it has been done, and it is quite likely that it is still being
done by a "narrow circle".
Another question is where and when the laundered money "shoots". What they work
for. Against whom and against what they are working.
It is curious, however, that the mentioned A., who delivered 15 thousand dollars to
Transneft, hinted that: "Yes, our connections go back to Voloshin!…"
In a personal conversation with a high-ranking Russian official, he called the increase
in tariffs for pumping at the end of 2000 a voluntary decision, and spoke about S. Weinstock's
activities as president of Transneft as anti-state activities. And, to everything, - as the source
stated with fury, - S. Vainshtok and S. Yevlakhov, - "... these s-bitches...(quote!)", - " ...and in
Novorossiysk they created criminal lawlessness on the filling of tankers!...".
According to a source from the special services, S. Vainshtok and S. Yevlakhov wanted
to privatize the entire pipeline system of Transneft (40,000 kilometers of pipelines!... ),through four Bahamian firms, with money offered by the Americans.
In practice, this would mean that the pumping of Russian, as well as Kazakh oil
pumped under intergovernmental agreements, would be controlled from the United States.
Yu. Sukhanov at the posts in the NK Slavneft immediately noted some
multimillion-dollar scams with oil products, which was repeatedly reported in the press.
These are the "state people" we have!
But a few more words-already about the "small fry".
Scandalous in the same period of 1997-1998 was the activity in Kyrgyzstan of a certain
Viktor Shevchuk (International Bancorp of credit & commerce, Inc., registered in Las Vegas,
Nevada, USA, (see the Factoring Agreement of 16.03.97, an account with National
Westminster Bank), who also organized the companies "Hing Shing Company LTD" and
"Hing Shing" in Bishkek, "Hing Shing" in China and "Hing Shing Company LTD" in
Ingushetia).
According to the testimony of the general director of the JSC "DAKO", V. N. Kod, V.
Shevchuk imported oil products into Kyrgyzstan in trains by smuggling, driving the trains at
night from the territory of Uzbekistan to the southern part of Kyrgyzstan.
It is known that he did this, including with Nikolai Lekhon (Omsk), who worked closely
with Viktor Radul (Omsk), whose brother, also Radul, worked in the office of the governor of
the Omsk region L. Polezhaev and was close to him.
(And now it is working, and now it is close!... Note. 2004)
By the way, according to Kyrgyz sources, V. Shevchuk illegally exported cash currency
from the territory of Kyrgyzstan - at least one case with 800 thousand dollars is known.
After the beginning of the "Kyrgyz scandal", V. Shevchuk, according to one of the
sources, disappeared at the first opportunity, allegedly to Canada; - but later another source
clarified that in the summer of 1999 he was hiding in Moscow.
According to Protocol No. 1 of 16.03.97 to the Factoring Agreement of 16.03.97, V.
Shevchuk's firm "International Bancorp of credit & commerce, Inc." finalised (did it finance?)
deliveries
to
Kyrgyzstan
under
the
contract
between
LLC
"Praktik
UBD"-"Kyrgyzgazmunayzat" for the supply of up to 10 thousand tons of gas condensate per
month.
It is interesting that in this Protocol No. 1 such MGTRK (TV and radio company) “MIR”
appears.
Interesting!…
Summarizing the above, we can say - there is no riddle of the "Kyrgyz scandal"; - or, if
you like, the Kyrgyzgazmunayzat scandal.
All participants are known.
These are, from the Russian side, B. Berezovsky, S. Vainshtok, S. Evlakhov, Yu.
Sukhanov.
This is Levette Investments, Inc., behind which the main organizers with their own
interests are hiding. The others who surfaced with their "claims" against the government of
Kyrgyzstan "Pyroli" and "Investaly" are simply clones to whom the rights were "transferred",
including from Russian accomplices.
The security agencies of Kyrgyzstan, together with the Russian FSB, the Ministry of
Internal Affairs, the SVR, the GRU and the Prosecutor General's Office, need to involve
Interpol and fully promote this case, and find out where and how heavy distillation fractions
were sold, since the total amount of damage to Russia only through this scam can reach
hundreds of millions of dollars, if not one hundred fifty - two hundred million! And there, at
the same time, a lot of interesting things will become clear about other affairs of such
persons as B. Berezovsky, and others! And it will become very clear how they managed to
"earn" 1-2-3 million dollars a day!
Of course, one can assume that people in Kyrgyzstan who are interested in privatizing
the same Kyrgyztelecom under a “plausible” pretext may currently stand behind the
“claims”...
It is interesting that S. Yevlakhov once answered a question with a hint about "debts"
sullenly: "Crooks in Kyrgyzstan!... They took it, they took it, but they don't want to pay!…"
But then he caught himself and quickly added: "But I didn't sign there for anything!…"
That's how smart he is.
And even in a state post. As well as S. Weinstock.
"State people", what can I say!
These "state people", as one of the sources stated, "... now, of course, they live worse…
But they have something... - with a percentage of losses for transportation..."
This percentage, we note, is small.
But if we take into account the pumped volumes!…
Kyrgyzstan and Russia should sort out the issue of oil products supplies for
Kyrgyzgazmunayzat. This must be done. Russia's losses are very large.
It would be possible to put an end to it. But it's too early to put a stop to it.
There are reasons, as mentioned above, to consider the "Kyrgyz scandal" from a
different angle, from a different position, in order to understand what kind of "bomb" they
are talking about in the special services of Kyrgyzstan.
The "KMZ case" had a political component.
But for the record. It was described above about the simplest, primitive scheme of
interaction of participants. They were self-confident, they acted brazenly. But the amounts
were generally small… In fact, schemes for laundering large sums can include dozens of
accomplices-legal entities, and it is much more difficult to understand such schemes. What
can I say - in those years, a simple chain for the sale of 20-30 thousand tons of oil to factories
included 5-7 participants!
Everything is clear with B. Berezovsky in this case.
Did S. Vainshtok, S. Yevlakhov and Yu. Sukhanov know about the political component
in the "KMZ case"? ...
In Kyrgyzstan, they knew it well. And a high-ranking source admitted this at the time.
As for Yu. Sukhanov, we can only say that at the gloomy mention of the political
component by the author, he turned even more pale, trembled, and almost fainted.
I knew.
S. Yevlakhov behaved similarly. There was horror in his eyes. My hands were shaking.
He was pale. He swallowed. The breath was "upper".
He knew it very well. And he understood very well what he was talking about.
Well, S. Weinstock, who equated himself with the Pope of Rome, is the smartest of all.
Shouldn't the smartest one have known?
They all knew! And they acted quite consciously!…
