The United States has imposed sanctions against billionaire Igor Kolomoisky, who is the subject of a money-laundering probe related to the near-collpase of PrivatBank, Ukraine s largest lender.
The U.S. blacklisted a Ukrainian billionaire and said it s ready to help fight corruption in the country at the center of Donald Trump s first impeachment trial and an effort to discredit President Joe Biden before last year s election.
Igor Kolomoisky, his wife and his two children are banned from entering the United States, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said in a statement Friday, March 5. While he was governor of Ukraine s Dnipropetrovsk region in 2014 and 2015, Kolomoisky was involved in corrupt acts and used his political influence and power for personal benefit, Blinken said.
The U.S. must face a second arbitration accusing it of overstepping its authority, this time for targeting a 22-story office building in Ohio for forfeiture, which the U.S. Department of Justice claims was connected to a money laundering scheme involving billions of dollars stolen from Ukraine's largest bank.
