Vladimir Putin's girlfriend has been slapped with strict sanctions by the United States in response to Russia ’s war in Ukraine.
Pregnant Alina Kabaeva, 39, is named on the federal Office of Foreign Assets Control’s specially designated nationals list, which means any of her US assets have been frozen and generally bans Americans from engaging with her.
Thirteen Russian nationals were added to the sanctions list, including the former star gymnast with two Olympic gold medals, Kabaeva who many say is the Russian warmonger's new girlfriend despite the 30-year age gap.
