The court has seized all corporate rights in Ukraine belonging to sanctioned Russian oligarchs Mikhail Fridman, Pyotr Aven and Andrey Kosogov. They are members of Putin's entourage and are involved in "schemes" of large-scale financing of Russia's armed aggression, SBU reported on Telegram.
The court decision concerns 20 companies and financial institutions owned by Kremlin oligarchs as ultimate beneficiaries or through controlled offshore companies. The value of the seized corporate rights is over 17bn hryvnas.
The blocked assets include financial and insurance companies, mobile and IT companies, and mineral water plants. The seizure of this property will not allow the Russian owners to "re-register" it to front companies to avoid further transfer of assets to Ukraine.
According to Ekonomichna Pravda's sources, the seized assets include 100% of Kyivstar, which is controlled by oligarchs through the Dutch company VEON Ltd. and Healthy Ukraine LLC, which has medical data of most Ukrainians who have signed a declaration with their family doctor.
