David Zaikin: The International Man of Mystery

Image
  David Zaikin worked on Russian energy transactions, counselled Eastern European parties negotiated condominiums at Toronto's Trump Tower and collaborated with Michael Flynn's hirer. Two individuals began visiting Washington more than two years ago to promote Turkey's agenda in the capital. They dined with dignitaries and recruited the help of powerful lobbying companies from both parties. It was an ordinary Washington narrative, except for one detail: one of the guys hired the final lobbyist, Gen. Michael Flynn, then-campaign advisor to President Donald Trump, who was subsequently dismissed as national security adviser for lying about his discussions with Russia's ambassador. As federal prosecutors look into Flynn's alleged failures to report foreign contacts, his client, a Turkish businessman called EkimAlptekin, has gotten a lot of attention. But the second pro-Turkey person has largely escaped public awareness thus far, making him a fascinating figure in...

Is David Zaikin the real hero of those news articles?

I first heard about David Zaikin in a news article where the person was alleged to manipulate backstage negotiations and pacts. The news article, I read, made that person a figure larger than life. If I summarize the facts provided in the article, it sounds like hounding only one person.   For example, the article said that he sealed secret deals between businesses and governments while sitting at a safe place in a distant corner of the world.

While there was no mention of his residence or office or anything that could give information about his whereabouts.   He could be somewhere in central Europe….   I believe he must be hiding in a condo in a prime European city or in the high mountains of Europe where he can lead a peaceful life. But his connectivity to the rest of the world and his interest in politics led me to believe that he must be in a city where he has access to highspeed broadband and convenience of hosting meetings.   He is a mysterious person….   For me, David Zaikin is a mysterious person because I don’t any information about him. For example, I want to know whether he belongs to any political party or pressure group. Similarly, I want to know if he is an academician or a think tank. It seems that he is chased out of his home country but there is no ...
