Descriptions

Owner of Nafta Moscow

Australian Sanctions Consolidated List,

He is therefore a leading businessperson involved in economic sectors providing a substantial source of revenue to the Government of the Russian Federation, which is responsible for the annexation of Crimea and the destabilisation of Ukraine. Suleyman Kerimov is a leading Russian businessperson and member of the Federation Council of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation and of the Committee on the Rules of Procedure and Parliamentary Governance. He is former owner of the financial and industrial group Nafta Moscow. The net worth of Kerimov and his family is estimated at USD 9,8 billion. He received large sums of money from Sergei Roldugin, who is the caretaker of the wealth of the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin. On 24 February 2022, Kerimov attended a meeting of leading businesspersons at the Kremlin with the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin to discuss the impact of the course of action in the wake of Western sanctions. The fact that he was invited to attend this meeting shows that he is a member of the inner circle of leading businesspersons close to the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin and that he is supporting or implementing actions or policies which undermine or threaten the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine, as well as stability and security in Ukraine.

Former owner of the financial and industrial group Nafta Moscow

Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes,

Member of the Federation Council of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation and of the Committee on the Rules of Procedure and Parliamentary Governance.

Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes,

uleyman Kerimov est un homme d’affaires russe influent ainsi qu’un membre du Conseil de la Fédération de l’Assemblée fédérale de la Fédération de Russie et de la commission sur les règles de procédure et la gouvernance parlementaire. Il est l’ancien propriétaire du groupe financier et industriel Nafta Moscow. La valeur nette de Kerimov et de sa famille est estimée à 9,8 milliards de dollars US. Il a reçu d’importantes sommes d’argent de Sergei Roldugin, qui gère la fortune du président de la Fédération de Russie Vladimir Poutine. Le 24 février 2022, M. Kerimov a assisté à une réunion de femmes et d’hommes d’affaires influents au Kremlin avec le président de la Fédération de Russie Vladimir Poutine pour discuter de l’incidence des choix à opérer à la suite des sanctions occidentales. Le fait qu’il ait été invité à participer à cette réunion montre qu’il fait partie du cercle rapproché des femmes et hommes d’affaires influents proches du président de la Fédération de Russie Vladimir Poutine et qu’il soutient ou met en œuvre des actions ou des politiques qui compromettent ou menacent l’intégrité territoriale, la souveraineté et l’indépendance de l’Ukraine ainsi que la stabilité et la sécurité en Ukraine. Il est donc un homme d’affaires influent intervenant dans des secteurs économiques constituant une source substantielle de revenus pour le gouvernement de la Fédération de Russie, qui est responsable de l’annexion de la Crimée et de la déstabilisation de l’Ukraine.

Почему в списке | Участие и пособничество в деятельности организованного преступного сообщества, созданного с целью систематического совершения особо опасных преступлений, направленных против основ конституционного строя и безопасности государства, государственной власти и интересов государственной службы, правосудия, а также против мира и безопасности. | Исходя из опубликованных ранее в СМИ материалов, подозревается в легализации имущества, полученного преступным путем. Расследование OCCRP на основе «Панамского архива» выявило, что в 2007 году ОАО «Национальные телекоммуникации» (НТК), контролировавшееся группой компаний «Нафта» Сулеймана Керимова, получило в долг 4 млрд рублей от другой структуры Керимова — офшора Tokido Holdings. 20 сентября 2010 года компания Desmin Holdings переняла право на требование долга и в тот же день всего за один доллар переуступила его офшору Sandalwood Continental, принадлежащему другу Владимира Путина — виолончелисту Сергею Ролдугину. К декабрю НТК погасили часть займа перед Sandalwood Continental. В 2011 году НТК были приобретены Ростелекомом, в результате чего долговые обязательства перешли к госкомпании. | По данным РБК, в 2017 году власти Франции предъявили Керимову обвинение в уклонении от уплаты налогов и отмывании денег. В феврале на вилле Hier, стоимость которой оценивается в 150 млн евро, прошли обыски в связи с предполагаемым незаконным приобретением недвижимости. Официально четыре виллы, расположенные на Лазурном берегу (Hier, Medy Roc, Lexa и Fiorella), принадлежат Александру Штудхальтеру, но, согласно информации французских правоохранительных органов, реальным бенефициаром собственности является Керимов. В ноябре 2017 года суд Франции освободил Керимова под подписку о невыезде и залог в размере 5 млн евро, в декабре сумма залога была увеличена до 40 млн евро.
