Labour leader says former Russian deputy prime minister should be on sanctions list for UK as well as EU
He is a former Russian deputy prime minister who owns an £11.44m luxury flat in London’s Whitehall, and on Wednesday Igor Shuvalov was accused of being one of Putin’s “cronies” who had “dipped their hands in blood”.
The 55-year-old, whose family wealth has been reported to top $200m, has this week been placed under sanctions by the EU, which said that he had supported actions and policies that “undermine the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine”.
