Daily News | Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich could reportedly escape U.S. sanctions
from U.S. Treasury sanctions at the suggestion of Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky, the Wall Street Journal reports.
Zelensky reportedly advised President Biden to hold off sanctioning Abramovich, whose net worth Forbes, because he might prove helpful as a go-between with Russia to help broker an end to the invasion. “For the negotiations, and in the interest of them succeeding, it is not helpful commenting on the process nor on Mr. Abramovich’s involvement,” a spokesperson for Mr. Abramovich told the Journal in a statement. “As previously stated, based on requests, including from Jewish organizations in Ukraine, he has been doing all he can to support efforts aimed at restoring peace as soon as possible.”
