Federal authorities are moving to seize a $60 million Gulfstream and a $350 million aircraft believed to be one of the world's most expensive private airplanes after linking both aircraft to Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich
NEW YORK — — U.S. authorities moved Monday to seize two luxury jets — a $60 million Gulfstream and a $350 million aircraft believed to be one of the world’s most expensive private airplanes — after linking both to Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich.
U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said in a release Monday that his office was using every legal tool available to respond to “Russian's illegal war in Ukraine.” He said the action “provides notice to the world of our commitment to enforce those controls aggressively in a transparent way.” Abramovich, who recently sold his stake in Chelsea, a Premier League football club in London, is among the wealthier Russians whose assets are being watched for sanctions violations after the Ukraine invasion.
