Thank you for joining me as we discuss key trends shaping our industries and markets. It's been a humanitarian crisis for the people of Ukraine, many of whom have faced devastation as the Russian invasion and war entered a third week. You hear a lot about economic sanctions that have been put in place by countries including the U.S.. During this program, I want to look at sanctions placed on Russia's Oligarchs who are on the move amid a global dragnet that Western governments have cast to ensnare their yachts, villas, jets, and bank accounts. You May HaveWondered: What is a Russian Oligarch?Oligarchs — or extremely wealthy business leaders who are politically connected — http://www.case-research.eu/upload/publikacja_plik/4931074_SA%20296last.pdf (became) http://www.case-research.eu/upload/publikacja_plik/4931074_SA%20296last.pdf (more prominent) in Russia in the 1990s, but they are not unique to Russia. Many Russian oligarchs are heavily involved in and benefit from Russian President https://www.cbsnews.com/news/vladimir-putin-russia-ukraine-dwindling-options-isolation/ (Vladimir) https://www.cbsnews.com/news/vladimir-putin-russia-ukraine-dwindling-options-isolation/ (Putin's regime), with some serving in political positions. For example, when Putin opened a new bridge to Crimea in 2018 — a region https://www.cbsnews.com/news/ukraine-russia-invasion-what-you-need-to-know/ (Russia had annexed) from Ukraine in 2014 — the bridge was built by his friend Arkady Rotenberg's company and the truck he drove across it was made by Sergei Chemezov's state corporation Rostec, according to https://carnegiemoscow.org/commentary/76555 (The) https://carnegiemoscow.org/commentary/76555 (Carnegie Moscow Center,) a think-tank that focuses on domestic and foreign policy. There is often a line of succession for oligarchs in politics. For example, Dmitry Patrushev, the son of Russian Security Council Secretary Nikolai Patrushev, was appointed as Russia's minister of agriculture, according to The Carnegie Moscow Center. Numerous Russian oligarchs and government officials were sanctioned by the U.S. in 2018, in part for the regime's occupation of Crimea and for continuing to instigate violence in Ukraine, https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/sm0338 (according to the U.S.) https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/sm0338 (Treasury Department), which announced the sanctions. Rotenberg's son and Patruskev were included in that round of sanctions for their involvement with the regime. "Russian oligarchs and elites who profit from this corrupt system will no longer be insulated from the consequences of their government's destabilizing activities," Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin said in a press release about those sanctions. (1) The Biden administration announced it would expand its sanctions on Russian oligarchs, further taking aim at Putin's close-knit, elite network. The Biden administration blames the oligarchs for providing the resources critical to supporting Putin's invasion. "Treasury is committed to holding Russian elites to account for their support of President Putin's war of choice," said Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen. "Today, across the U.S. government and in coordination with partners and allies, we are demonstrating our commitment to impose massive costs on Putin's closest confidants...
