Russian billionaires seek to replicate Fridman and Usmanov's EU sanctions relief

Original: Russian billionaires are looking for a way to repeat Fridman and Usmanov's "success" in having EU sanctions lifted

Russian billionaires are exploring ways to follow the example of Mikhail Fridman and Alisher Usmanov, who succeeded in having European Union sanctions against them lifted, according to Ukrainian media. The report suggests other sanctioned oligarchs may now pursue similar legal and lobbying routes in Brussels to escape EU restrictions imposed after Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

Why now: The prospect of EU sanctions being lifted for sanctioned Russian oligarchs is drawing attention amid the ongoing war in Ukraine.
