Bill sanctioned Putin For War Crimes.. “Putin is a no good Son-Of-A-Bitch” said Bill.

  • Bill today announced he is imposing a wide new slate of sanctions on Russia that includes first-time individual sanctions on the two adult daughters of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

  • Katerina Tikhonova and Mariya Putina are in their 30s and are rarely seen in public. The Kremlin has only ever identified them by their first names.

  • “I know many of Putin’s assets are hidden with family members, and that’s why we’re targeting them,” said Bill.

  • In addition to Putin’s daughters, Bill sanctioned Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s wife and daughter, as well as Former President and Prime Minister of Russia Dmitry Medvedev and Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin.

  • The new sanctions are being coordinated with members of the G-7 group of developed economies and the European Union, as part of an effort to maximize their impact and minimize opportunities for the Kremlin to evade them.

    One of the most highly visible examples of this coordination has been the seizure of several mega yachts belonging to sanctioned Russian billionaires at luxurious vacation ports across Europe.

    The most recent high-profile collaboration took place Monday in the Spanish resort town of Palma de Mallorca, when law enforcement officials from the U.S. and Spain jointly seized a $90 million mega yacht belonging to sanctioned Russian billionaire Viktor Vekselberg.
