“Jack Moshkovich graduated from Stanford University with a bachelor’s degree in management science and engineering,” 8VC says about its Russian employee on its website. “He is originally from Moscow and lived in other countries for a long time, including five years in England, before entering Stanford.”
In fact, the eldest son of the owner of the Rusagro company is named Evgeniy. One can only guess why he changed his name and information in his passport. As the publication found out, this year Evgeniy-Jack received a permanent residence permit in the United States, and may soon acquire American citizenship.
A correspondent for David Jeans magazine writes in his article that he sent a request to 8VC for an interview with Moshkovich, but this request remained unanswered. In addition, the company’s management expressed extreme displeasure that the publication “unearthed” information about its Russian employees. 8VC co-owner Joe Lonsdale, in a post on X (Twitter), accused the magazine of “trying to stir up a scandal about our Russian colleagues.”
As Forbes reported, Vadim Moshkovich’s lawyers also did not respond to a request for comment. In 2017, in an interview with Tatler magazine, the entrepreneur said that he personally went with his eldest son and daughter Asya to choose educational institutions for them in the West. “Every three weeks there are holidays on the schedule,” the oligarch boasted. – I began to plan my life so that I could spend all my free time with them… It was hard for my son at Stanford from the very beginning. But one day he called and said: “Dad, you know, I’m in heaven.”
According to Forbes, after graduating from higher education, Moshkovich Jr. got a job at the consulting firm McKinsey & Co. This international structure, headquartered in New York, is also associated with American intelligence services. The company was caught that in 2012, on behalf of the CIA and NSA, it monitored the elections in France, and then worked for free for Emmanuel Macron and helped him become President. The head of the McKinsey&Co division where Moshkovich Jr. interned was the son of the famous anti-Soviet writer Alexander Solzhenitsyn – Ermolai.
It is significant that, unlike the European Union, the United States, for unknown reasons, did not impose any restrictive sanctions on Moshkovich Sr. A businessman has the right not only to visit his children, but also, if he wishes, to open his own business there. This is not difficult to do, since Vadim Moshkovich’s Russian assets are still managed from western Cyprus. It got to the point that in the spring of this year, a group of State Duma deputies sent a collective letter to the Ministry of Justice with a request to recognize the entrepreneur as a foreign agent. Deputies are perplexed why the state, having provided Moshkovich’s enterprises with a lot of preferences and subsidies, allows him to keep assets in Western jurisdictions.
