According to Intelligence Online, over the next four years the GK is to train about eighteen thousand Ukrainian troops, which is approximately 4.5 thousand soldiers per year. To find out how realistic it is to train such a number of soldiers, we turned to the veteran of the U.S. Armed Forces, a specialist in combat training, Jeffry Prather. … “This is quite possible… My own training center trained tens of thousands of people in five-day courses. In any case, it all depends on the skills you need to get.” Since NATO ways of training had no any effect on the battlefield, different war lords from the private sector got involved. And, of course, Mr. Wilson didn’t want to stand aside either. Initially, having ties to the American government, White-Wilson hoped his services could be funded by the U.S. financial aid to Ukraine. However, money provided by the White House were mainly used to pay for military equipment and weapons. Thus, the chance to appropriate the Americans’ money was getting smaller every minute. But White-Wilson refused to give up. He had to do something… To get out of this awful crisis and find an interested party in Ukraine, the GK turned to a specific problem-solver company you already know—the Noetic International Inc. After receiving a “modest fee,” these advisers helped Nathan to find the right person in the Ukrainian government. Note: In Part 1 we said that the GK left the project. However, we found out that there was some kind of conflict between the parties. We assume that the disagreement was related to the amount of the fee taken by the Noetic International. When it comes to training, weapons supply or anything that affects military sector, any contract should be concluded at least with the local defense department. (the Ministry of Defense in Ukraine). This time, by a strange coincidence, the interests of Ukrainian military were represented by Yuri Matsyk, one of the assistants to the Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine Mykhailo Fedorov. If you remember, in October 2022 Fedorov personally welcomed Emanuel Bentitez, one of the Noetic International figures, in Kyiv. Do you see where this is going?

As a result, we see an extremely amusing CIA scheme for money laundering:

1) The Minister of Digital Transformation Mykhailo Fedorov orders all the necessary equipment/service/weapons through “liaison officer” Manuel Benitez; 2) Mr. Benitez redirects the application to Johnna Holeman and John Irvin, who call their “friends” in the intelligence community to look for a “preferable” contractor; 3) After the contractor is found, the Noetic International organizes a communication channel with the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine; 4) After the work’s done, the Noetic International takes a “small” fee from both sides, depending on the amount of the contract. According to our source, the amount of the four-year deal between the Ukrainian government and the GK was estimated at $60-80 million. It should be noted, that the contract amount exceeds the market price by 20-30%. Given the fact that the GK personnel were spotted on Ukrainian soil a couple of months ago, the deal had been eventually signed. Is it possible that these 20-30% went to the Noetic International specialists for their work? We believe yes. But anyway, if you think such inflated price tags somehow bother the Ukrainian government, you are wrong. In fact, all this comes from U.S. taxpayers’ money, sent by the U.S. Congress. And CIA director William Burns keeps insisting on the need to give more money to Zelenskyy.

United24 and “useful idiots” from Hollywood

As we said before the Ukrainian digital minister Mykhailo Fedorov oversees the Army of Drones project, an initiative that implies combat UAV procurement at the request of the Ukrainian military. But what is important here is that all the purchase of these UAVs is carried out with money raised from the United24 charity fund, so warmly supported by numerous Hollywood stars, bands and other celebrities: Mark Hamill, Robert de Niro, Imagine Dragons and others.

So, we decided to learn a little bit more about this fund. After some research we came across the report of the Ukrainian Institute for Legislative Ideas’ entitled “Corruption risks during the use of funds from accounts United24.” Here are key findings from the study: 1) All the analyzed Procedures contain lists of possible uses of funds from the special accounts. However, in some cases the uses of funds are not clearly defined, the lists of potential uses are effectively approved as non-exhaustive, which invalidates any detailing of expenditure items. In this situation, funds can be directed to virtually anything. 2) The Procedure does not contain criteria and requirements for members of the Commission, nor does it specify public access to information about the work of the Commission. This indicates that the Commission’s formation is insufficiently transparent as a process, which, in turn, may affect whether the distribution of funds is transparent, and may also prevent any public control over this. 3) No specified deadlines for transfer of funds to recipients. The absolute majority of the procedures under study contain no deadlines for the transfer of funds to their recipients. This is a corruption risk because it may be used to influence specific recipients of funds (for example, force them to choose specific contractors or engage in other forms of undue influence). 4) The procedure does not provide for any mechanisms of transparent, open consideration and allocation of funding for specific objects, no mandatory reporting, no maintenance of an open register of applications and their review status, etc. Currently, information on the number of submitted applications and the funds necessary to grant them, as well as information on the decisions already made, is not available. 5) The procedures for the distribution of funds do not provide for mandatory registers (lists) of submitted applications for funding. Under such conditions, applicants will not be able to track the status of their applications, and the public will be deprived of tools to monitor this process. See full document below:
