  • •EU to sanction Tatyana Kim and over 40 others for military supply links.
  • •Wildberries is accused of facilitating sales of military and dual-use goods.
  • •Ukraine has targeted Wildberries warehouses with drone strikes this summer.

The European Union plans to sanction Tatyana Kim, CEO of Wildberries, along with over 40 individuals and companies due to their connections to Russia's military supply chain amid the ongoing war in Ukraine. The sanctions, set for approval on November 16, 2026, highlight Wildberries' role in facilitating the sale of military and dual-use goods, as well as its partnership with VTB Bank, which is already under EU sanctions. Kim, reportedly the richest woman in Russia with a net worth of $8 billion, has gained international attention following Ukraine's drone strikes on Wildberries warehouses, which were used to store military-related supplies. Other individuals proposed for sanctions include Aleksandr Chachava, Ruslan Baysarov, and Sergei Matviyenko, all linked to companies involved in supporting the Russian military. This latest round of sanctions is part of the EU's ongoing efforts to respond to Russia's actions in Ukraine.
