Maxima Middle East Trading Co. is a company effectively owned by Rami Makhlouf, according to the Panama Papers. The company plays a pivotal role in smuggling oil and gasoline to the Syrian regime through a complex network of companies based in the UAE, Switzerland and the Netherlands. Uncovered by the Panama Papers leaks, among its co-conspirators are believed to be al-Jazeera Company and Beirut-based Overseas Petroleum Trading, which is under US sanctions over its cooperation with al-Jazeera Company, owned by Ayman Jaber. The company is accused of forging contracts and shipping data, and of using ships and changing their destinations, making them disappear and reappear on radar, in order to evade sanctions imposed on Syrian institutions and provide oil support and equipment to the Syrian regime and its military apparatus.
