    APPEARS the first 21M euros had not begun to be fully paid out and then the Russian bank went bankrupt.....one of over 102 that had their banking licenses pulled in 2016

    Interestingly...Le Pen was promised the money right after her visit to Putin and Moscow and after her support for the Crimea annexation and the invasion of Donbass.......Putin is said to have pointed her to this bank which then failed.....owner was a close friend to Putin....

    Russian Deposit Insurance Agency suing Le Pen's Front National to return €9 million that FN received as a loan from a Russian bank in 2014.

    The day after saying she may accept additional funding from Russia, Marine Le Pen calls annexation of Crimea legal.

    Nothing like Russian pay for play and Le Pen bowing down to money and Putin.....how can she claim to be proFrench when she can only get campaign money outside France....appears there are not enough French neo right wing donors with money....

    Default Murky money in Brexit campaign

    A very curious, if not odd tale:
    The shadowy donor group that gave the Democratic Unionist Party £425,000 during the Brexit referendum campaign has links to the former Director General of the Saudi intelligence service – also the father of the current Saudi Ambassador to the UK – openDemocracy can reveal.
    The donation to Arlene Foster’s party – which was used to fund key Leave campaign advertisements across the UK in the run up to the European referendum – was initially kept hidden because of Northern Ireland’s donor secrecy laws.
    (Near the end) The DUP’s so-called revelation tells us nothing about the true origins of their vast campaign donation.
    Link:https://www.opendemocracy.net/uk/adam-ramsay-peter-geoghegan/secretive-dup-brexit-donor-links-to-saudi-intelligence-service?

    Placed here as this thread has a variety of such posts. I do not regard the Brexit campaign as extreme, some do here.
