In the year since, the task force has brought charges against at least 35 individuals and corporate entities as the Biden adminstration and its allies seek to impose pain on Putin and the Russian elites who back him. "We thought it was really important to go after, in the first instance, those individuals whose corruption has fueled the Russian war machine," Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco told NPR."And to send a very clear signal that we could work quickly with our partners and that we could set a pace for enforcement of these sanctions."
Monaco says that over the past year, the task force has seized, forfeited or otherwise restrained more than $500 million in Russian oligarch assets. Federal prosecutors have charged Deripaska and three women with conspiracy to violate American sanctions. Part of the alleged scheme involved arranging for Deripaska's Russian girlfriend to give birth in the U.S.But Ferrari did say that his office, which specializes in sanctions issues, is fielding calls on a daily basis from Russians with sanctions-related questions.
As for the business elites closest to Putin, Gabuev says they all know that they will go down if Putin goes down.
So what about the billionaire oligarchs not on the sanction list? We know why...

More NPR lies or I suppose propaganda at this point. What about the more than a dozen oligarchs not on the sanction list? I will never ever support NPR again!
