Usmanov

business

Alisher Usmanov, a Russian billionaire and founder of USM Holdings, was removed from the European Union's sanctions list, a decision that sparked controversy and criticism from Ukraine and some EU officials. The removal followed pressure from France and Slovakia, with claims that national security considerations justified the move, though the EU did not publicly provide clear reasons. Usmanov's case has been cited as a potential precedent, raising questions about the consistency and effectiveness of EU sanctions.
