The Sochi Olympics may have set up the largest drug, gun, and sex trafficking ring in the world. Could we talk about that? Instead of, you know... NOT talking about that? Like... Please?
Gafur Rakhimov ran off with BILLIONS of dollars and is described as "One of the 4 or 5 most important people in the heroin trade in the world... He is absolutely a very major and dangerous gangster " by former British ambassador to Uzbekistan, Craig Murray.
He is credited with being the reason the Olympics were in Sochi, and I tend to believe that because the person who blew the whistle on the setup (Wherein Putin's administration demanded payoffs to not start talking about what Rakhimov did) was told that he'd be "drowned in blood." Valery Morozov had to flee to the UK shortly after leaking the info. Motherfucker was on Nightline and still ain't nobody talkin' bout this.
A direct quote from the article linked below: "In 2012, U.S. Treasury officials sought to freeze Rakhimov's bank accounts around the world, describing him in public documents as a "key member" of a huge Russian-Asian criminal syndicate called the Brothers' Circle."
Russian, Georgian, and Ukrainian governments don't acknowledge that the Brothers' Circle is a thing that exists, however they are mentioned in the United States Treasury attempts to freeze the accounts of Rakhimov, Vladislav Leontyev, and Kamchy Kolbayev, who is mentioned a few times in Chelsea Manning's leaked cables.
Another alleged member, though one certainly with many ties to the above, multi-billionaire Alisher Usmanov, "is a member of the Councils of the 2014 Sochi XXII Olympic Winter Games and XI Paralympic Winter Games. He is also a member of the Board of Trustees of the Russian Olympian Sportsmen Support Fund." Also just happens to hold the majority of shares for Arsenal FC, if football is your cup of tea. All that info is on his wiki page.
So, like, yeah, it's kinda cute that one of the rings didn't open up at the opening ceremonies and d'a wealthy athletes are adopting dogs. But, like... Let's talk. Cause a new fascism is rising real fast over there in Eurasia.
