Some of the holdings of Uranium One were U.S. uranium mines, a strategic asset that required U.S. government scrutiny.
Reportedly, before Clinton and Giustra flew to Almaty to close the deal with the Kazakh dictator, there was some backroom dealing going on.
Clinton, Giustra, and Dzhakishev had been wheeling and dealing together for at least a couple of years.
Concerned over the possibility of a Kazakh government takeover, Uranium One officials met with U.S. Embassy staff in the Kazakhstan capital city and requested U.S. officials intercede on behalf of the Canadian company.
About the same time, Uranium One Chairman Ian Telfer made a $1 million contribution to the Clinton Foundation.
The very same month, Bill Clinton was offered a $500,000 speaking fee by Renaissance Capital, an investment bank with Kremlin ties that was selling Uranium One stock.
All totaled, Giustra, Telfer, and several other individuals who profited from the various UrAsia, Uranium One, and Rosatom deals gave about $145 million to the Clinton Foundation.
