More mystery: Putin's banker who traveled to El Calafate denounced the accused of attacking Cristina for terrorism

The

, advisor and financier of

, who recently traveled mysteriously and furtively from his country to El Calafate and Buenos Aires, became involved in one of the legal cases that most haunts Cristina

.

She is the one investigating

, which occurred on September 1 and for which 

and Brenda Uliarte are being held in pretrial detention, accused of being the co-perpetrators of the crime of "attempted homicide ".

Through his legal representative in Argentina, the director of the second largest bank in Russia, VTB Bank,

, the Vice President's confessed aggressor, carried out the attack against Cristina under the influence of an

, which is considered a

, but which is part of the

armed forces .

Kostin has also been litigating in Argentine courts, for at least six years, to ensure that another businessman from his country's steel industry,

, who invested in million-dollar assets in Argentina, is considered part of

that he used the public funds of his VTB bank illegally and without repaying the loan.

Although it was already very particular,

thus acquires even more disconcerting edges.

Due to his friendship with Putin and the money he lends to the Moscow regime, Kostin is a target of sanctions from the vast majority of Western powers.

A mysterious trip to El Calafate and Buenos Aires

That is why the private jet with which he landed in the city of Santa Cruz, where the Kirchners have their residence, took three days to make the journey from the Russian capital.

He had to avoid the airspace of the European Union, making a stopover in Morocco, then he traveled to San Pablo, by then he could reach El Calafate.

The Russian tycoon spent only one night there and visited the Perito Moreno Glacier with several other people.

His jet flew to Ezeiza on April 23, left its passengers on the ground, both Kostin and his partner and children, and immediately left for Asunción, Paraguay, to refuel, and return without any intermediate wait.

He had to avoid the risk that the oil companies that operate at the Ministro Pistarini airport would refuse to supply fuel to his Bombardier Express Global 6000, a luxury aircraft valued at 66 million dollars.

It happens that the headquarters of these companies could activate the sanctions that weigh on Kostin, issued by the United States, the European Union, Japan, Switzerland, New Zealand or Australia, whom they consider to be a financier of Russia's invasion of

.

Some of these sanctions apply to VTB Bank and even to his girlfriend, journalist and Putin propagandist Nayla Azker Zade.

Two opposition deputies, Hernán Lombardi and Ricardo López Murphy, requested the Executive Power to report on the Russian businessman's trip to the country, which lasted ten days in total but had his passengers on national soil for only seventy and two hours.

There was no answer.

The foundations of the request for information from the opposition about the Russian plane that landed in El Calafate.

The questions about this story are now more intriguing than before.

The attack against Cristina and the case in the Supreme Court

What was the real objective of Kostin's trip to Argentina, one of the most influential oligarchs of the Putin regime?

Why did he try to get involved in the cause of the failed attack on Cristina Kirchner?

Clarín

accessed the documentation contained in the judicial files of Argentine courts that show that

to take away the million-dollar assets he has in our country.

And also to the most innovative and unknown denunciation of him against Sabag Montiel.

The case is also made more complex because Kostin's lawyer managed to get the Supreme Court of Justice to consider

in the main case that began in the courts of Comodoro Py,

despite the fact that the highest court, for legal norms, it only reviews sentences of conviction or acquittal and does not initiate its own investigations.

It is better to go in parts.

In 2016, Andrey Leonodovich Kostin, through a power of attorney signed at a Russian notary, appointed lawyer Durrieu as his legal representative in Argentina, both for himself and for his VTB bank.

That representation was renewed with notarial deeds to this day.

Kostin's first objective in Justice was to confiscate part of the assets that Russian businessman Alexander Katunin managed to obtain in various countries around the world, including Argentina.

Among those properties is a luxurious hotel located in El Calafate, a venture called

.

In addition, through a trust, Katunin acquired

.

In June 2017, journalist Hugo Alconada Mon reported in La Nación that Judge María Servini was investigating "

", of which Katunin would be a part.

Initially, Servini

.

The now furtive traveler to Argentina, Kostin, then assured that his bank, VTB, had granted a loan to his compatriot's holding company with ties to Argentina, and that this debt was never paid off.

Durrieu's lawyer's complaints were later expanded.

But, late in the investigation, both Judge Servini, as well as the Federal Chamber and the Criminal Cassation Chamber

, that his alleged debt to the VTB lacked evidence, and ordered his dismissal.

The

and is still in that instance, although Kostin has later managed to return to the framework,

.

The government has very good relations with the Vladimir Putin administration.

The Vice, especially.

The interest in maintaining that link is mutual, even though Argentina is not a world power.

There are not many "friendly" countries of the Russian Federation.

Tattoos, neo-Nazis and Russian news

After the failed attack against the vice president, a state news agency that depends on the Russian state, called Sputniknews.lat,

entitled "What is behind the

of the man who attacked Cristina Kirchner".

In effect, Sabag Montiel tattooed on his skin the so-called "La Cruz swastika" and "El Sol Negro", two symbols used by Adolf Hitler's SS, and other groups of Nazis and neo-Nazis.

In the text of the Sputniknews note, a K media operator, named Jorge Elbaum, is cited as a "sociologist", and declares that the symbology of Sabag Montiel's tattoos not only

German National Socialism, but also they can also be seen today in “

.

The Argentine "specialist" then adds that currently, a military group that he describes as "

", the so-called "Azov Brigade", also uses "El Sol Negro" and "La Cruz Swastika" to identify themselves and to commit "crimes of hate” against “Russian speakers” in the Donbas region.

Elbaum suddenly introduces an

into two parallel stories that, according to him, intersect:

. 

He does it like this: "The symbols tattooed on Montiel's body should not cause us any surprise," he declares in the same note, and concludes: "They are part of a logic of hatred that, in Argentina, has Kirchnerism and its boss, Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, as a recipient of hate." That article went viral on September 2, 2022.

Suddenly, and perhaps in a minutely spontaneous way, various official media outlets in Argentina also pointed out that

called the Azov Brigade.

On September 20 of last year, Crisis Magazine published an article entitled "The attack on CFK and the war that has already begun."

The note affirms that it is an "investigation" that proposes "

. assassinate the vice not only with the Azov Brigade, but also with the other Russian magnate who invested in Argentina, Alexander Katunin, and one of his alleged partners, the Ukrainian politician Sergei Taruta Both, according to the note, help with his fortune to finance the “neo-Nazi militia” Azov Brigade.

Is there evidence about it?

Not in Justice.

Although there is a discussion about the far-right position of this Ukrainian military group, especially some of its members who at some point accepted its fascist-Hitlerian ideology, everything goes back to previous years, in which the Azov Brigade formations they got involved in hand-to-hand fighting in the Donbass region.

The

.

If some of its members have neo-Nazism as their ideology, it is personal and not organic.

Putin's regime declared the "Azov Brigade" as a "terrorist" group Enough for Kostin's legal representative in our country to appear before prosecutors and federal courts denouncing that Sabag Montiel is involved in the "terrorism" financing

of the Azov Brigade, through alleged illegal funds provided by Katunin.

According to Durrie, Katunin is totally related to "links to extremist cells in the Southern Cone" and to "terrorist financing and money laundering operations", all thanks to the alleged "scam" of which VTB Bank was a victim.

Clarín

agreed to several

that the lawyer Durrieu presented to federal prosecutors, the same thing he did before the Appeals Chamber, in which he explains that

murder

This newspaper learned that Kostin-Durrieu's complaints were rejected by prosecutor Guillermo Marijuán and judge Julián Ercolini, as well as by appellate court chambers.

Again, why did Russian banker Kostin get involved in allegations that Sabag Montiel is an “alleged local member of the Azov Brigade?

Kostin, that April 22nd when he landed in El Calafate, just to sleep there one night, knew then that in that city in the southern south a compatriot of his, Katenin, had built one of the most luxurious hotels in the area, for which he litigated. with emphasis and in a repetitive way to take over the venture, as already said, because that other Russian businessman would not have paid a loan to the powerful VTB Bank.

The case, for now, "sleeps" (and not so much) in the Supreme Court.

Meanwhile, the complaint to prove that Katenin and the Ukrainian Taruta financed terrorism that culminated in one of their members, Sabag Montiel, attempting to kill Cristina,

.

In these writings, the lawyer Durrieu asks that all the investigations that ruled that Katunin was innocent in the case of fraud against the VTB bank be annulled.

This increasingly amazing story will not stop on this note.

There will be more.

Because there is more information.

The "Triple K" war is becoming known little by little: Kostin, Katunin, Kirchner.
