The ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine has brought to light the issue of sanctions against Russian oligarchs. However, a recent report by Swiss newspaper NZZ sheds light on a concerning contradiction in the US government's approach to this matter. Despite publicly condemning Switzerland for its supposed leniency towards enforcing sanctions against Russia, US politicians seem to turn a blind eye to similar practices within their own jurisdiction. This raises questions about the effectiveness and sincerity of US efforts in targeting Russian oligarch assets. As the possibility of Donald Trump's re-election looms, the situation only becomes more pressing and raises concerns about the future of the conflict and the impact on global politics.
