Washington seizes more than $1 billion in assets owned by Russian oligarchs in the United States

The US blocked a $1 billion US-based company linked to Russian oligarch Suleiman Kerimov on Thursday, alleging that the ally of President Vladimir Putin used this to funnel and invest darkened funds. According to the Treasury Department, Kerimov, a billionaire involved in Russian politics, secretly handled the Delaware-based Heritage Trust, which invested in a number of large public companies. According to Treasury Department officials, the Heritage Trust, which was established in 2017, poured money into the United States through shell companies and under-the-radar underpinnings established in Europe. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen pledged that the US would continue to intervene "even as Russian elites cover-up behind intermediaries and complex legal arrangements." She stated that the US will "actively incorporate the multilaterally coordinated new sanctions on those who fund and advantage from Russia's war against Ukraine." The action comes just weeks after Fiji turned over a $300 million superyacht linked to Kerimov, who has been sanctioned by the US since 2018 for alleged financial fraud and his role in the Russian government. Having followed Putin's February 24 invasion of Ukraine, which provoked a slew of Western sanctions, the United States and European nations have increased their crackdown on Russian oligarchs.

Russians search for BBC, outside news outlets amid Putin crackdown

A growing number of citizens inside Russia are turning to independent news reports rather than state-sponsored propaganda for information about the invasion.

The trend comes as Russian officials are working to suppress and distort the work of independent journalists within their own borders and on the ground in Ukraine as they attempt to skew the facts behind the assault and further justify an attack on their neighbor to the west.

Recent figures tallied by the BBC, one of Europe’s largest news providers, show traffic coming from inside Russia for content about the invasion has spiked dramatically, a sign the Russian people are looking for alternatives to the state-sponsored programming pumped out by Putin and his allies.

"It’s often said truth is the first casualty of war,” BBC Director-General Tim Davie said this week. “In a conflict where disinformation and propaganda is rife, there is a clear need for factual and independent news people can trust — and in a significant development, millions more Russians are turning to the BBC."

Russian President Vladimir Putin has from the onset of the invasion attempted to paint Russia forces as “liberators” who are conducting “special military operations” inside Ukraine in an attempt to “denazify” the country’s government.

State media outlets such as RT and Sputnik have parroted those talking points, and their employees have reportedly been instructed not to use words such as “invasion” and “war” to describe what is happening in Ukraine.

Some government-sponsored media outlets have gone a step further, suggesting Ukrainian forces are committing war crimes against their own people.

#Repost from @freedom_faction by @InstaSave.DStudio ・・・ #Russian #PresidentVladimirPutin has accused tech billionaire #BillGates of starting an #Ebola epidemic in #TheCongo by “experimenting” on poor African villagers. Mr. Putin claims that the Microsoft founder has Congolese tribes with a rare strain of the Ebola virus as part of a research and development project into “#bioweapons”. News reports from Western media are claiming that between one and three people have died since the outbreak of the Ebola virus was confirmed by the #WorldHealthOrganization on Thursday, whilst doctors are confirming that victims were killed by the rare “#Zairestrain” of the virus. YNW reports: While medical staff remain puzzled by the appearance of the deadly disease in #BasUele province, a previously unaffected and remote part of the Congo, a #Kremlin report claims the #Ebolavirus is a “bioweapon” being tweaked as part of an elite global #eugenics plan. On 11 May 2017, the Min of Health of the Democratic Republic of the Congo notified WHO & partners of a lab-confirmed case of #Ebola#DRC — WHO (@WHO) May 12, 2017 And the finger of blame is being pointed squarely at Bill Gates. It is understood the bioweapon is being developed by Gates, the richest man in the world, to achieve his self-confessed Illuminati goal of depopulating the globe. According to the leaked confidential Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) report that has been read by sources in the Kremlin, it has been revealed that the virus was created by “world governments and non-government organizations.” It is understood the chief non-government organization behind the Ebola virus is Bill Gates’ own #BillAndMelindaGatesFoundation. President Putin is said to be “disturbed by the potential for worldwide harm.” There have been meetings in the past 24 hours regarding further sanctions on Bill Gates and his front companies, as well as plans to protect humanity from the “one man eugenics movement.” 🖐🏾More in comments👇🏾#PopulationControl #InstaSaveApp
