Why It's So Difficult to Sanction Russian Oligarchs' Property in NYC

The Biden administration is ordering new sanctions against Russian oligarchs and others in President Vladimir Putin’s inner circle as Russian forces pummel Ukraine, but here’s why it’s not easy to put those sanctions into action.

Never for a moment in my life did I think think that individual businessmen could be sanctioned for no crime, but just for being a citizens of a country at war. Very strange how human rights work in the west !!!!
As for the Russian businessmen men it is a lesson learnt the hard way.Invest your wealth in your own country !!!

dont sell properties to anyone who doesn't pay taxes in the us.

Move the homeless in those properties and see who will show up to try and kick them out.

[uptownszn]

Bro really outhere asking average people if they know a Russian Oligarch lives near them

[nickcreason]

we'll let a whole bunch of homeless people live there. Therefore, you cannot kick anyone out since no one owns it.

[jo-anbryson]

Seize the assets and you will soon find out who owns them.

Because we are actually in bed with those oligarchs...
