EU drops sanctions on Russian tycoons Fridman and Usmanov
Original: Почему ЕС снял санкции с Фридмана и Усманова (English subtitles) @Max_Katz
The European Union has lifted sanctions on Russian billionaires Mikhail Fridman and Alisher Usmanov, a notable reversal in the bloc's sanctions policy tied to the war in Ukraine. Commentators, including Russian opposition voices, are debating the move: courts had challenged the legal basis for sanctioning the men, while critics argue that easing restrictions undermines pressure on Putin-aligned business figures.
Why now: The unexpected easing of EU sanctions on prominent Russian oligarchs is prompting debate about whether Europe is softening its sanctions regime against Moscow.
