'Despite tough talk, Britain’s new sanctions program against #Russia ’s invasion of #Ukraine has proved shaky. Some #oligarchs have received generous exemptions. Officials have at times overreached.'

"Mr. #Fridman also received a roughly £7,000 monthly allowance to cover his family’s basic needs."
'Officials permitted Petr #Aven a monthly allowance of £60,000'

#UnitedKingdom acquits #Russian oligarch Mikhail #Fridman of most of the charges.

The charges of conspiracy to defraud the Interior Ministry and conspiracy to commit perjury were dropped against Friedman. However, he is still suspected of money laundering. https://canada.unofficialbird.com/nexta_tv/status/1643180821958873088#m

Mikhail #Fridman and Pyotr #Aven are going to sell their shares in Alfa-Bank in order to get out of sanctions.

They own 45% of the bank's shares, which businessman Andrey Kosogov, who is not subject to sanctions, plans to buy out for $2.3 billion. https://canada.unofficialbird.com/nexta_tv/status/1634080747744010245#m
