Shoigu and his clan are withdrawing money from Russia: Russian media have learned about a new conflict between the Kremlin Towers
Former Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and people around him have begun to divest themselves of assets and move money abroad. Shoigu-controlled construction company Litak has frozen a number of construction projects.
This was stated by Belarusian and Russian propagandist Aleksei Dzerman on the Nezigar Telegram channel. This may be a result of the fact that former Deputy Defense Minister Ruslan Tsalikov was not appointed a senator from the Republic of Tyva, where Shoigu himself comes from.
"His sons, together with representatives of Krasnaya Square, have begun to withdraw assets and the IC Litak. The companies controlled by Shoigu and Tsalikov's family, which are located in the perimeter of Litak, have begun to stop and freeze new construction projects under the Litak brand and stopped financing new projects," the statement said.
This is due to a shortage of working capital at the company, which has led to increased debts to contractors and subcontractors. The Federal Tax Service has blocked multiple payments for cashing out funds from companies operating within the perimeter of the Airplane.
Against this backdrop, the governor of the Moscow region, Andrei Vorobyov, who is also linked to the construction group, began to withdraw money to Tajikistan and China under the guise of advances and payments for construction equipment through his own bank.
"The collapse of the Shoigu clan has triggered numerous processes in the construction business in the Moscow region. Tsalikov's sons have Cypriot passports and are preparing to sell off their business assets in 2025. Ruslan Tsalikov himself is in Moscow and is unofficially banned from leaving the country," the propagandist writes.
As OBOZ.UA already wrote, earlier this year it became known about repressions against people from Sergei Shoigu's entourage: the detention of Deputy Defense Minister Timur Ivanov and the interrogation of Ruslan Tsalikov. The pressure on them is related to corruption in the Russian Defense Ministry. In September, a former employee of the Defense Ministry's Advanced Research Department, Andrey Chekmazov, was taken into custody, and his deputy, Dmitry Fomin, was placed under house arrest.
