оппачки, а на ютубе видео уже заблокировано по запросу Браудера. Только я что-то не пойму, но что там у него копирайт???
Ясное дело, что это видео - заказное и агитационное, и факты надо проверять. Меня лично больше всего интересует, где бы достать инфу по годовым отчетам Эрмитажа - это же не публичная корпорация, и на их вебсайте 10-К нету... Потому что если он реально врал партнерам и клиентам фонда (не акционерам, как их называют в агитке) про налоги, тогда это серьезная тема. Вот сейчас пытаюсь найти, где бы эти факты проверить.
Тем временем, хотел показать это дело многим знакомым американцам, преподающим в бизнес-школах и забацал перевод, но не успел сделать субтитры из-за лени
Вот перевод, если кто захочет прочитать, про что там дело было. Ну и поправки в перевод, сделанный на скорую руку, приветствуются:
Sergey Magnitskiy, Russian citizen, died in prison "Matrosskaya tishina" on November 16, 2009. His death caused a reform of a prison system in Russia but left many question behind. Whom to blame in this death? Latin wisdom - cui prodest (cui bono) ("To whose benefit?"). Dead Magnitsky brought dividends only to those whom he has worked for. CEO of Hermitage Capital Fund while staying in London hired expensive lawyers from "Gridnev and partners" for Magnitskiy. Elite attorneys can worked for much better condition in prison for their client but they didn't spend a penny for that. They were protecting not Magnitskiy, the were protecting Browder. Before death of agnitskiy, nobody even mentioned about his arrest. Lawyers were silent, Browder was silent. And then Browder hoisted dead as a flag.
US citizen, resident of United Kingdom, investor William Browder was the only Western investor who supported arrest and imprisonment of tycoon Khodorkovsky. When one year later Russian IRS indicted Browder in tax evasion, he completely changed his position and compared "Yukos case" with Hermitage situation which he called "Magnitskiy case". Some time ago Browder was an active supporter of Kremlin policy. Now he spends a lot of money to fight against Russian government. He invokes everybody to exclude Russia out of G-8 and to stop investing in Russia.
Browder earned millions on expense of these people and built up $4bn investment portfolio. He paid them $17... a month although official minimum wage was $135 per month.
Interview: They needed (disabled) veterans of Afghanistan war primarily. They were first. The only problem that were not so many veterans in Kalmykia as they needed. In beginning they need a little but the were expanding so they needed more, and they said lets use not only Afghanistan war veterans. They said: "We don't care!"
In offshore tax haven of Kalmykia region he opened about 20 companies where he was transferring Western investors' money from Cyprus offshore tax haven - as loans. With the help of this scheme instead of 15% tax on dividends he paid only 5%. He completely shaved of 24% regional revenue tax. And in order to decrease federal taxes by half he shamly "hired" disabled persons. As total he paid 5,5% instead of 38%.
- Well, for us even $14 per month is a good addition, at least for bread. I have 3rd group of disability and my benefits are only $120 per month. My wife's salary is $170. My son is a student. For housing we need to pay $70. You see how we live on such money. So we have to sign up for such scams - wherever we are invited.
Only with two Klamykian companies - "Saturn Investments" and "Farthest prairie" - Browder fooled IRS by $17 million. And there are more of them - "Orient-K", "Oasis-M", "Realand"", "Cameo" and others which were never checked. But Browder was cheating not only with Russian taxes. He lied to shareholders too. In financial statements of Hermitage Capital he stated that company paid required 38% on corporate taxes. He was able to cancel criminal tax evasion case against "Saturn Investments" - by bribing officials. But he got unlucky with "Farthest Prairie" - a judge happened to be honest. So, Browder just declared his company bankrupt and simply stole the money of its shareholders - he transferred money through two small banks to companies which existed just for one day. $21,5 million dissappeared in boundless Kalmykian prairies of Browder.
Russian governement awarded tax exemptions for those who employ disabled people and by that return these people to society. Browder was hiring disabled people to fake positions of financial analysts although in reality these people were working in other places as gardeners, plumbers, turners... Tax evasion was his main target in "hiring" these people. If somebody failed to keep his disability papers in order, Browder was throwing out this person. Now these people are crime co-participants and testify to investigators. Browder doesn't need them anymore.
My daughter called me. "Dad, there were investigators from Moscow, from FSB, they came for you. I was surprised, but then I thought - damn, I started to realize everything, they show all documents, start to ask about other people, how they came there - all these people in this scheme.. I understood that we were in a wrong place. He tricked us.
Brosder business scheme was as follows: through dummy false Kalmykian companies he was buying shares of biggest Russian corporations: Sberbank, Surgutneftegaz, Rosneft, Gazprom. These operation were financed not only Hermitage Capital funds, but also by mysterious New York sponsors whose address matches with address of Citibank Headquarters which is famous for having connection with CIA. After obtaining substantial shares of biggest Russian corporations, Browder started to blackmail them with lawsuits. Kalmykian "Farthest Prairie" prohibited to Sberbank to issue new stock. Browder didn't allow to Rosneft to increase market capitalization, sabotage consolidation of stock right before acquisition of Yuganskneftegaz. He forced Surgutneftegaz to sell majority blocking share. Only "Realand" - one of Browder's companies - started 4 lawsuits against Gazprom. So, the business-strategy of Browder was - the worse it for Russian economy, the better it is for his sponsor from other side of ocean. In November 2005 Browder was denied entrance to Russia. Being a head of Moscow office of Hermitage Capital, he was working in Russia on tourist visa. He didn't think that he needs to follow rules and laws of this country. He was sure that money can solve any problem here. Lawsuit about Browder's tax evasion in Kalmykia was started in 2004. 8 times by bribing officials he was able to close it. IRS filed a claim, but prosecutors didn't see and look for crime. Only 4 years later, in February 2008, the lawsuit was re-opened. Before the end of 2010 the investagators should transfer the case to Prosecutor's Office. He is afraid of open court trial and international police search for him. That's why while sitting in secure far away place, he is blaming everybody who was revealing his cheating affairs. He called them corrupted and killers of Magnitskiy. He is making clips. WIth the help of US senator Benjamin L. Cardin he is preparing black lists. But he completely forgot about disabled people, whom he used and involved them into crime. But Browder is always repeating the name of Magnitskiy, whom he abandoned in the prison. While Magnitskiy was sitting in Butyrka prison instead of Browder, Browder was travelling around the world. He had a vacations in South Africa and United Arabic Emirates. He found a luxury hotel Carlton-Tower where he launched a chic memorial service party on killed in Russian prison Magnitskiy.
Today Browder continues to lie to his stockholders and to whole world, trying to cover with Magnitskiy his tax evasion affairs and other crimes. It can be called publicity on the blood. But in the real black list of Russian corrupted bribers Browder's name will be listed on one of the top-positions.
