The United Kingdom has sanctioned billionaire Moshe Kantor, the head of the European Jewish Congress



The United Kingdom sanctioned Russian billionaire Moshe Kantor, who heads the European Jewish Congress and other prominent Jewish organisations, on Wednesday.

"Our latest wave of measures will end UK imports of Russian energy and sanction even more individuals and businesses, decimating [Russian President Vladimir] Putin's war machine," said UK Foreign Secretary Liz Truss in a statement. "We are showing the Russian elite, together with our allies, that they cannot wash their hands of the atrocities committed on Putin's orders." We will not rest until Ukraine is victorious."
Kantor is also the president of the World Holocaust Forum, the chairman of the European Jewish Fund, and the chairman of the World Jewish Congress Policy Council, according to Forbes.

He was sanctioned because he is the largest shareholder of Acron, a fertiliser company with strategic ties to the Russian government.

The European Jewish Congress was "deeply shocked and appalled" by the British government's decision. The decision, it said, was "misguided and devoid of any factual or evidence-based merit."
