icij.org/investigations/pandora-papers/uk-freezes-london-property-linked-to-putin-ally-after-icij-report/

Quick Glance: US Imposes Sanctions on Russian Metals at Exchanges

The US and UK imposed new restrictions on trading Russian aluminum, copper, and nickel that will impact global metal markets, aiming to limit President Vladimir Putin’s ability to fund his war efforts.

The rules ban the delivery of new supplies from Russia to the London Metal Exchange and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. While non-US entities can still buy physical Russian metals, the restrictions are expected to influence prices on the LME, a key benchmark in global contracts.

The sanctions will also affect traders' handling of Russian metal, potentially leading to discounts compared to other sources. The move aims to reduce Russia's earnings while avoiding broad sanctions on crucial metals. Russian metals exports were valued at $25 billion in 2022 and $15 billion in 2023.

The restrictions aim to prevent market disruptions seen in past sanctions and mark a significant shift in the metal supply chain dynamics. Palladium and titanium, major Russian-supplied metals, are not subject to these restrictions.

The UK government froze the multimillion-dollar London property roughly a week after the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists unveiled its connection to Igor Komarov and its seemingly untouched status by sanctions against the high-ranking Kremlin official.

In February, the ongoing relationship between Komarov and the prime central London townhouse on Herbert Crescent, purchased for over $16.5 million through a British Virgin Islands-based shell company he previously managed, was highlighted.

An update was made on April 5 regarding the Companies House records for Wastom, aligning with the ROE filings.

Why Ukraine is losing the war with Russia: The West’s failure to send weapons to Kyiv is putting Putin on course for victory.

politico.eu/article/why-ukraine-losing-russia-war/

Quick Glance: Russia Strikes Chernihiv: 18 Dead, Ukraine Appeals for Air Defense

At least 18 people were killed and over 60 wounded in Chernihiv due to Russian missile strikes. Ukrainian officials emphasized that the attack could have been prevented with adequate air defense systems.

Russia launched three Iskander cruise missiles at the city, located near the Russian border and previously encircled by Russian troops.

Ukraine currently has three Patriot air defense systems but requires 26 for full coverage. Following appeals for more systems, Germany pledged to send an additional one.

A $60 billion aid package for Ukraine is stalled in the US Congress, allowing Russia to exploit ammunition and air defense shortages and gain ground in the east.

Quick Glance: Call for Restraint: Putin Engages With Iran's Raisi

During a phone call with Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, Russian President Vladimir Putin cautioned against further escalation in the Middle East, emphasizing the potential 'catastrophic consequences.'

Putin expressed the expectation for all parties to exhibit reasonable restraint to prevent a new round of confrontation that could lead to 'catastrophic consequences' for the entire region, as outlined by the Kremlin's report on the call.

The already tense situation in the Middle East heightened over the weekend following Iran and its allies launching over 300 missiles and drones towards Israel. Israel reported successfully intercepting 99% of the projectiles using air defense systems.

Moscow and Iran share strong military and political ties. The call on Tuesday was initiated at the request of the Iranian side.

Marjorie Taylor Greene mocked by fellow lawmaker's extreme Ukraine aid bill amendments

kyivindependent.com/marjorie-taylor-greene/

Quick Glance: GOP Congresswoman Propagates Russian Narratives Against Ukraine Aid

Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene introduced amendments to the latest bill on aid to Ukraine, echoing Russian propaganda narratives about "biolabs in Ukraine" and "persecution of Christians in Ukraine."

Greene proposed halting funding for Ukraine's aid until free and fair elections are held, persecution of Christians stops, and all biolabs in Ukraine are closed.

The allegation of secret "biolabs" in Ukraine is a long-standing Russian propaganda conspiracy theory, also picked up by Chinese disinformation networks according to the EU East Stratcom Task Force.

House Speaker Mike Johnson announced determination to advance the foreign aid bill on April 20, despite opposition from GOP hardliners who have blocked progress for over six months.

Quick Glance: US imposes new sanctions on Iran's drone program

The United States imposed new sanctions Thursday on sixteen people and two entities associated with Iran’s drone program to punish Tehran for the weekend's attack on Israel.

The sanctions target executives of an engine manufacturer supplying Iran’s Shahad-131 drones, companies servicing the engines, and individuals providing the drones to Iranian proxy forces in the Middle East.

Coordinated with European allies, the new sanctions aim to disrupt Iran's missile and drone program and isolate the country globally.

President Joe Biden emphasized the US commitment to holding Iran accountable, utilizing economic tools to counter Iran's activities, as stated by Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen.
