Trump Lifts Sanctions on Putin Ally’s Wife, Fueling Treason Accusations
The U.S. removed Karina Rotenberg, wife of sanctioned Russian oligarch Boris Rotenberg, from its sanctions list. Rotenberg, a U.S. citizen since at least 2013, had been sanctioned in 2022 despite continued international travel and significant joint assets with her husband, including European real estate and equestrian holdings. This action comes as the U.S. simultaneously expanded sanctions on other Russian individuals and entities, while the EU concurrently lifted sanctions on another sanctioned oligarch and his family. The reasons behind the U.S. decision to lift sanctions on Karina Rotenberg remain unstated in this report.
