Overview
- The Rosfinmonitoring register now lists 19,131 individuals and 823 organisations, a status that enables account freezes and other financial restrictions.
- Russian banks are required to freeze assets and halt financial services for people placed on the database, according to the watchdog’s rules.
- The Moscow Times reported that Novaya Gazeta Europe editor-in-chief Kirill Martynov was also added to the list.
- Kasyanov, a former prime minister labeled a foreign agent in 2023, and Guriev, the London Business School dean who has urged tougher sanctions and advanced weapons for Ukraine, are prominent Kremlin critics.
- Rosfinmonitoring’s listings follow an October FSB case naming the three linked to the Anti-War Committee, alleging “violent seizure of power” and “organizing a terrorist community,” with the committee declared “undesirable.”
