The journalist of "Mother Jones" Dan Friedman has spoken about the latest data that have come out regarding the financing of Lulzim Basha with Russian money.
In an interview with Syri Tv, Friedman said that there is new evidence regarding this issue.
"The main way that helps us is a theory that we have. I think it was a Russian-funded effort, and the article showed evidence to support that. The US government released the intelligence report that supported this theory. The BBC journalist and other journalists, in their reports, demonstrated that there is still other important evidence that the company 'Biata Trade' was under the control of Maxim Trofimets, who lives in Moscow and has connections and deals with the Russian government.
That's a big part of this nonsense that you're saying, that suggests, we can't prove it yet, but suggests that the Russian government was involved in this payment that went to lobbyist Nick Muzin in the US. I think that this scheme is now unraveling. It appears that the woman you mentioned was working in Moscow on behalf of a person in Moscow to set up this company. Yes, it is exactly that, and it is already clear that the origin is in Moscow. But it is not clear who Trophimet was working with. It could be said that he probably worked for another party and yet we are guessing that it could have been the Russian secret service in the Kremlin.
But this has not been clarified, but we will investigate further to find out. We have data, traces that we want to follow. I want to emphasize again, of course you are interested in the Albanian side and Basha's involvement, but this is an investigation and a big international effort, and it seems that the USA is also interested in knowing the extent of the Russian intervention. Maybe they interfered in the election of Trump in 2016, or later in other elections," said the journalist of "Mother Jones" Dan Friedman./ CNA
