    Ukraine Proposes Sanctions Against Russian Billionaires Lisin and Potanin

    Ukraine has proposed to the European Union to impose sanctions against Russian billionaires Vladimir Lisin and Vladimir Potanin, following the EU's decision to lift sanctions against Alisher Usmanov and Mikhail Fridman. The Ukrainian President's representative for sanctions policy, Vladislav Vlasyuk, suggested that including Lisin (owner of NLMK) and Potanin (head of Norilsk Nickel) in the EU sanctions list would effectively cut off their companies from trading on the European market. These businessmen have so far avoided sanctions due to the significant presence of their enterprises in Europe.
