In real terms nothing will be done.

There are some Russian commentators who say its not even close, Putin is by far the richest man in the world. Its all very secret but the Berezovsky v Abramovich case in 2012 showed the depth of Putin's reach. And of course Berezovsky died under mysterious circumstances. Its a fascinating subject

Its also thought that Abramovich bought Chelsea to hide his money from Putin in a non threatening manner. Berezovsky had put most of his wealth in a news network that had been critical of Putin so there had been friction between the two. If its true then buying Chelsea was a masterstroke

On topic. We cant and wont do anything about Russia as many have commented the Russian Oligarchs club has considerable wealth in the UK.
