Belgian Financial Sanctions,

German Khan is a Russian businessperson maintaining a close relationship with the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin, similarly to his business partners, Mikhail Fridman and Petr Aven. For many years, he had been one of the main shareholders of the ABH Financial Limited, which includes a major Russian bank, Alfa Bank. He was also a shareholder of the LetterOne investment firm. In 2022, facing Western sanctions against him, he transferred the ownership of his shares in ABH Financial Limited and LetterOne to his long-time business partner Andrei Kosogov. He continued to manage the Russia-based assets of these companies. He is believed to be one of the most influential persons in Russia. He exchanged favours with the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin in return for political support to his business and financial gains. Vladimir Putin rewarded Alfa Group Consortium’s loyalty to the Russian authorities by providing political help to Alfa Group Consortium’s foreign investment plans. Moreover, he was among the leading Russian businesspersons who participated in the congress of the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs in Mar 2023, where the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin gave a speech and urged billionaires to put “patriotism before profit”. The insurance company AlfaStrakhovanie, subsidiary of Alfa Group Consortium, provides insurance to the vehicles of the Federal Service of the National Guard of the Russian Federation (Rosgvardia), whose units operate in the occupied regions of Ukraine under Russian control, as well as the bodyguard vehicles of the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin. Furthermore, X5 Retail Group, another subsidiary of Alfa Group Consortium, cooperates with JSC Voentorg, an entity subject to restrictive measures which provides catering and laundry services, as well as military uniforms, to the armed forces of the Russian Federation and whose subsidiary sells T-shirts bearing the “Z” military symbol used by Russian propagandists to promote Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine. He has therefore been actively supporting materially or financially and benefitting from Russian decision-makers responsible for the annexation of Crimea or the destabilisation of Ukraine. He is also a leading businessperson operating in Russia and a 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.

Personnes associées: Vladimir Poutine, Mikhaïl Fridman, Petr Aven, Alexey Kuzmichev - Entités associées: Alfa Group, Alfa Bank - German Khan est un homme d’affaires russe qui entretient des relations étroites avec le président de la Fédération de Russie, Vladimir Poutine, à l’instar de ses partenaires commerciaux Mikhail Fridman, Petr Aven et Alexey Kuzmichev. En mars 2022, il a transféré ses participations dans ABH Holdings, qui contrôle une grande banque russe, Alfa Bank, à son partenaire commercial de longue date Andrei Kosogov (Andreï Kossogov). Ce transfert a été déclaré nul et non avenu par la Banque nationale d’Ukraine. En outre, le transfert de ses participations dans A1, qui fait partie d’Alfa Group, pourrait être considéré comme fictif. Il a également été actionnaire de la société d’investissement LetterOne. Il a continué de gérer les actifs d’Alfa Group basés en Russie. Il est considéré comme l’une des personnes les plus influentes de Russie. Dans un échange de faveurs avec le président de la Fédération de Russie, Vladimir Poutine, il a obtenu un soutien politique à ses affaires et à ses profits financiers. Vladimir Poutine a récompensé le consortium Alfa Group pour sa loyauté envers les autorités russes en apportant un appui politique aux plans d’investissement du consortium Alfa Group à l’étranger. Par ailleurs, il a figuré parmi les femmes et hommes d’affaires russes influents qui ont participé au congrès de l’Union russe des industriels et des entrepreneurs en mars 2023, au cours duquel le président de la Fédération de Russie, Vladimir Poutine, a prononcé un discours et a exhorté les milliardaires à faire passer “le patriotisme avant le profit”. La compagnie d’assurances AlfaStrakhovanie, filiale du consortium Alfa Group, fournit des assurances pour les véhicules du service fédéral de la Garde nationale de la Fédération de Russie (Rosgvardia), dont les unités opèrent dans les régions occupées d’Ukraine sous contrôle russe, ainsi que pour les véhicules des gardes du corps du président de la Fédération de Russie, Vladimir Poutine. D’autre part, X5 Retail Group, une autre filiale du consortium Alfa Group, coopère avec JSC Voentorg, une entité soumise à des mesures restrictives qui fournit des services de restauration et de blanchisserie, ainsi que des uniformes militaires, aux forces armées de la Fédération de Russie et dont la filiale vend des T-shirts avec le symbole militaire “Z” utilisé par les propagandistes russes pour promouvoir la guerre d’agression menée par la Russie contre l’Ukraine. German Khan apporte donc un soutien matériel ou financier actif aux décideurs russes responsables de l’annexion de la Crimée ou de la déstabilisation de l’Ukraine, et tire avantage de ces décideurs. Khan est également un actionnaire important de Rosvodokanal, une autre entreprise du groupe Alfa et l’un des principaux exploitants privés de services de distribution d’eau en Russie. Il est également un homme d’affaires influent exerçant des activités en Russie ainsi qu’un homme d’affaires ayant une activité dans des secteurs économiques fournissant une source substantielle de revenus au gouvernement de la Fédération de Russie, qui est responsable de l’annexion de la Crimée et de la déstabilisation de l’Ukraine.
