The condition of the billionaire Oleg Deripaska, who fell under personal US sanctions, is rapidly declining. According to the rating of the richest people of the planet according to Forbes (real time) version at 18:00 Moscow time, it decreased by $ 957 million and in real time is $ 5.3 billion. This was due to a sharp drop on the background of En + London stock exchange by 20% - to $ 9.6 per share.

In addition to Deripaska, six more participants of the Forbes list were also hit: they themselves were included in the new list of sanctions, as well as 12 of their companies. Suleiman Kerimov's fortunes decreased (by $ 244 million to $ 6.6 billion) and Viktor Vekselberg's F 10 (by $ 41 million to $ 14.6 billion). The condition of Igor Rotenberg and Kirill Shamalov did not change, and Vladimir Bogdanov and Andrei Skoch even grew by $ 1 million and $ 8 million, respectively.

Before the publication of the "Kremlin report" in which the US authorities promised to name the main friends of Vladimir Putin, against whom restrictions must be imposed, the richest people in Russia were visibly nervous. When the "Kremlin report" was made public, it turned out that it fully coincides with the Russian part of the world ranking Forbes. The Russian billionaires were confused: "Will the sanctions be imposed for the entire Forbes list?" For some time everyone was waiting for new personal sanctions, but problems, as it turned out, do not threaten everyone.

On Friday, April 6, Washington said that now "Russian oligarchs will not have a chance to profit from the Russian corrupt system, they will not be isolated from the consequences of the destabilizing activity of their government." All assets of their assets in the US are frozen. Citizens of the United States are forbidden to enter into any business relations with them.
