The planned seizure of jets belonging to Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich is the latest U.S. government response to the invasion of Ukraine.
A federal judge in New York signed a warrant authorizing the seizure by the Justice Department of two jets owned by Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich.
The jets tied to Abramovich, who is close to Russian President Vladimir Putin, are a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner, and a Gulfstream G650ER, according to documents filed in U.S. District Court in Manhattan. A chart detailing the ownership of planes lists Abramovich as the beneficiary of an entity in Cyprus named "The Europa Settlement Trust," which in turn had ownership and control of an entity called Wotten Overseas Holdings Limited in the island country of Jersey.
