Two Russian oligarchs worth more than £11bn have come out against Putin’s war on Ukraine.
They are Oleg Deripaska, once Russia ’s richest man but now under US sanctions, and Mikhail Fridman, worth £9.6bn and named by the US treasury in 2018 as linked to Putin.
The Ukraine-born Fridman and his partners own Alfa-Bank, Russia’s largest privately held bank, as well as supermarket chain X5, the country’s largest, and mobile carrier Veon.
