Biden Administration to Impose New Sanctions on Russian Oligarchs and Their Families In a move aimed at further isolating Vladimir Putin's inner circle, the Biden administration is reportedly preparing to impose new sanctions on Russian oligarchs and their families. The sanctions are expected to target individuals with close ties to the Kremlin, including business leaders and politicians who have been accused of corruption and human rights abuses. The move comes as the US continues to pressure Russia over its actions in Ukraine, including the annexation of Crimea and support for separatist rebels in eastern Ukraine. The sanctions are likely to exacerbate tensions between the US and Russia, but may also send a strong message to other countries considering aligning themselves with Moscow.
