  • Dossier author Christopher Steele worked as a subcontractor for Oleg Deripaska, a Russian oligarch linked to Vladimir Putin, according to a new report
  • Steele facilitated a meeting in September 2015 between Deripaska and DOJ official Bruce Ohr, according to The Hill
  • Steele’s links to Deripaska have been one of the more puzzling aspects of the Trump-Russia probe
Christopher Steele, the author of the infamous Trump dossier, worked as a contractor for Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska and facilitated a meeting between the billionaire and Department of Justice official Bruce Ohr.

Deripaska’s law firm hired Steele’s private intelligence group, Orbis Business Intelligence, in 2012 to conduct research for Deripaska as part of a lawsuit against the billionaire, according to The Hill.

Steele, a former MI6 officer with experience in Moscow, also facilitated a meeting in September 2015 between Deripaska and Ohr, the Justice Department official whose wife worked for Fusion GPS, the opposition research firm that hired Steele to compile the dossier.

FBI agents attended the meeting, which was aimed at getting Deripaska to provide information for organized crime investigations.
