The Russian Federation deliberately does not disclose the names of those on the sanctions list against Ukraine in order to be able to influence the Ukrainian business elite.
Economic expert Vsevolod Stepanyuk stated this on air on the First Business channel, PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“It’s leverage. The person does not know whether he is on the list or not. He knows this only after his corresponding decisions or non-decisions, after his corresponding actions. This is a political impact on the Ukrainian business elite,” the economist explained.
As a reminder, PolitNavigator previously reported that Russian sanctions will greatly upset Ukrainian oligarchs.
