💨 Abstract

Roman Abramovich, former Chelsea owner, faces legal action for not using £2.3billion sale proceeds for humanitarian aid in Ukraine. The funds, frozen in a bank account since 2022, were intended for this purpose, but disagreements with the British government have stalled the process. Chancellor Rachel Reeves and Foreign Secretary David Lammy have expressed frustration, stating they are prepared to take legal action. Pressure had been growing on the government from charities and political figures to resolve the issue.
