☆ US Says It Wants Forfeiture of Billionaire Russian Oligarch's $300 Million Superyacht

By Luc CohenNEW YORK (Reuters) - The United States on Monday sought the forfeiture of a $300 million superyacht it says is controlled by billionaire Russian oligarch Suleiman Kerimov, who is under U.S. sanctions. He amassed much of his wealth through a stake in Russian gold producer Polyus. Kerimov was sanctioned by the U.S. Treasury Department in 2014 and 2018 in response to Russia's activities in Syria and Ukraine. Those sanctions barred Kerimov from accessing the U.S. financial system. A spokesman for Khudainatov said in a statement on Monday that the vessel was "unlawfully seized" by the DOJ.

☆ Dozens of sanctioned superyachts seized from Russian oligarchs still hang in limbo, racking up millions in maintenance

Seized yachts owned by sanctioned Russian oligarchs hang in limbo as US and European authorities decide next steps. Annual maintenance for some of the yachts costs as much as $115.6 million. Earlier this week, CNBC reported that billions of dollars in oligarch's assets — from yachts and villas to private jets — are still frozen. And while the Russian oligarchs are still technically responsible for paying for yacht maintenance, they're unlikely to fork over the maintenance cost or authorities will encounter difficulty collecting the funds due to sanctions on financial transactions with the billionaires. According to Maltby, the maintenance cost of a yacht usually totals about 15% to 20% of its overall value.
☆ U.S. imposes sanctions on military procurement network aiding Russia

The U.S. Treasury also designated family members of Russian oligarch Suleiman Kerimov, as well as individuals that it said worked as financial facilitators in Suleiman's network. The U.S. Treasury blacklisted Milandr, a Russian microelectronics company that Washington says is part of Moscow's military research and development structure. The U.S. Treasury has sanctioned major military industrial firms in Russia and the Commerce Department has cut off exports of American-made components and U.S. technologies that have been used in some of Russia's military hardware. Russia has managed to procure drones from Iran that have been used to attack cities and power infrastructure in Ukraine. Iranian military entities and industries are already under heavy U.S. sanctions over Tehran's nuclear development program.

The Justice Department on Tuesday named two veteran prosecutors to lead its money-laundering and asset-recovery section. Brent Wible, a veteran federal prosecutor whose latest stint at the Justice Department began in May 2020, has been appointed the section’s new chief, a Justice Department spokesman said. The Justice Department earlier this year announced the formation of an interagency task force dedicated to enforcing sanctions and other economic countermeasures imposed on Russia, dubbed Task Force KleptoCapture. The money-laundering section’s international unit has worked closely with the task force, officials say. Justice Department leaders have said the agency intends to pay closer attention to victims’ rights when resolving cases of corporate crime.
