Mr. Klyushin was arrested in the spring in Switzerland at the request of the United States, he is accused of financial fraud, he is facing extradition. Oliver Sirik believes that the United States “disguised” the main accusation.
“The materials of the criminal case considered in the District Court of Massachusetts were classified. American federal prosecutors only report that it is impossible to confirm or refute the fact of the existence of this case. This is quite unusual, since Mr. Klyushin is accused of insider trade, and such information is usually widely illuminated in the United States, ”said Syrik.
In his opinion, the United States is trying to hide the “political motives” of extraditions that would prevent the issuance of a Russian Russian Russian.
According to the publication, Vladislav Klyushin is suspected of leading the operation of Russian special services for interfering in the elections, including involvement in hacker attacks on the servers of the US Democratic Party. The Times writes that he goes through the accused in the case of insider trading in securities along with Russian Ivan Ermakov. Oliver Sirik specified that Mr. Ermakov is a member of the leadership of the IT company M13, which belongs to Vladislav Klyushin. Ivan Ermakov is also among the seven Russians, whom in 2018 the US Ministry of Justice accused of cyber abuse, theft of personal data and laundering of money. According to the agency, they are officers of the main intelligence department (GRU, now the Main Directorate of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation).
