Who Is Ilan Shor?
Shor, sentenced to 15 years in June last year for his involvement in a $1 billion bank fraud and other illicit schemes, is under U.S. and European Union sanctions for his efforts to destabilize Moldova, one of Europe’s poorest nations.
Shor, the founder of the pro-Moscow Shor Party, fled Moldova after the election of pro-Western President Maia Sandu in 2020 and is reportedly hiding in Israel, where he holds citizenship.
According to Moldovan authorities, Shor was granted Russian citizenship and received a passport in January, police spokeswoman Diana Fetco stated. Fetco added that Russian authorities did not officially notify Chisinau of Shor’s acquisition of Russian citizenship.
In an interview given to a Russian blogger, published on Rutube on May 15, Şhor said that he now holds Russian citizenship, in addition to that of the Republic of Moldova and Israel.
