in 1992 congress revoked market access for serbia and montenegro as a result of their aggression in the wake of yugoslavia. today i will be introducing bipartisan legislation to revoke unrestricted access for countries who invade their neighbors, period. i call upon our trading partners to invoke their own national security rights at the w.t.o. and similarly take away market access russia until this point as it enjoyed in their economies. this should be ended, this market access, unless and until ukraine's territorial integrity and sovereignty are as they were prior to the russian invasion. i was also glad to seat germans reduced their policy. this is a big deal. they are joining our other allies that have sent weapons in the past and are sending more now. germany is allowing another ally, the netherlands, to send rocket-propelled grenades. i have been critical of germany. i have been critical of germany on this very floor, also when i was at the munich conference in germany last week. i wish they had taken these steps sooner, but i commend them for taking these steps now. we also need

these yachts from the mediterranean from the islands of spain and from france to the maldives and montenegroo try to get away from some of these sanctions. for the united states and britain and other countries that for years have kind of ignored the activity of some of these oligarchs in plain sight. skylines of new york, miami, and london, some of the poshest neighborhoods have a lot of properties that are associated with some of these people. the question is, how is the treasury department, the justice department, going to be able to identify which property belongs to which oligarch then try to seize those assets? that's going to be the hard part and we'll see whether they can do that in the coming months and years. we got a statement today from the attorney general who said quote, we will leave no stone unturned in our efforts to investigate, arrest, and prosecute those whose criminal acts enable the russian government to continue this unjust war and look, that's what they want to do. they want to go after these people who they believe are helping to fund essentially the efforts of the ru

the yacht linked to roman abramovich it had traveled from montenegro from being seized. turkey is a member of nato but the country has not joined in on sanctioning the russian oligarch the u.s. government hasn't either, but some experts say that could eventually change if the white house does sanction him, the first stop for the feds will likely be colorado. with a look at his mansion in aspen, here's cnbc's robert frank. >> roman abramovich burst onto the aspen steam with the aim to impress. in 2008 he paid $36.5 million for a 14,000 square foot glass fortress at the same year he bought a ski house down the road for 12 million. he threw a $7 million party. he gave generously to charity. now his two properties could be frozen sources telling me the white house is considering adding him to the u.s. sanctions list property records show both homes remain in abramovich's own name. that is unusual for oligarchs who hide their ownings because he's the legal owner, the feds could immediately seize them now to seize the properties and take title the government would have to prov

one yacht is in the seychelles, another reportedly to montenegro. and on wednesday, 500 foot yard of a russian oligarch, worth roughly $600 million, and on thursday france seized a 280 yacht linked to a man considered a close ally of putin. and putin's own yacht on satellite images moored safely in a russian port. to crack down on russian assets, biden administration has announced a new task force to lead this charge. >> we will freeze and seize their yachts, their private jets, opulent estates in world capitals. >> here in the u.k., oligarch is selling his london properties and even the chelsea football club which he's owned for 20 years. his yacht is also under the microphone owe skepticism it could be an escape tactic for vladimir putin. two helicopter pads, a submarine, and a military-grade missile detection system. now, he has said he has no ties to russian president vladimir putin. despite some criticism that he does have those ties, but he also has said in the recent days that he will be selling the chelsea football team and donating all of t

his 600 million yacht was heading to montenegro where it had been docked.nation was removed. europe has been seizing assets to the sanctioned oligarchs, abramovich is now on the list. so how impactful is this at this point in terms of the oligarchs and their power or people's perception of them? >> well, first and foremost, there are different oligarchs, okay? they have been oligarchs who have already tried to distance themselves from the kremlin. >> right. >> and those who have tried to be silent, waiting, you know, for where the tide turns. >> right. >> as for abramovich, so far i don't think he has been very successful. he tried to sell chelsea. >> and donate the money or something, right, right. >> and something happened to the yacht. definitely it's a sign to many russians. but some russians, you know, like patriotically caused russians to regard this as rats are fleeing from the sinking ship. and to others, to, let's say, the upper/middle class, higher class of russians, it's a sign of what to do because they know abramovich has a very intuition, very

now, if you recall, he shoved the prime minister of montenegro out of the way on camera., the question is, do you -- how do you think our nato allies are viewing this moment, that trump's not there, that he's not the one in charge during this particular war? >> one of the things that leaders of countries really like america to have is kind of stable rhetoric, to have a president who is consistent in the things that he says and most importantly, a president who likes nato, right? and donald trump's spent years talking about -- talking down to nato countries, saying that they weren't doing enough, talking about and threatening to pull the united states out of nato. and so, they are more at home with biden, they, you know -- they're talking with him. trips earlier this year, despite the kerr muffles they've had over the time period at the beginning of last year, when he was with emanuel mack cron, he was talking with the other leaders, there's more of a comfort there, that's very obvious, because of the way that donald trump has talked about nato in the past and frankly ho,

he is referencing of course to the time trump shoved the president of montenegro at a nato meeting backime minister. we have come a long way since the former guy was shoving other leaders. president biden and other world leaders were seen today reaffirming their alliance, and standing united in the face of russian aggression. >> we are the strongest alliance in the world, as long as we stand together, we are also safe. >> despite its name, nato is not simply a geographic alliance. it's a group of countries who stand together because we believe in democracy, in the rule of law, in the defense of human rights. and the values that underpin all of our societies. nato and partners around the world are united, in condemning and standing up to russia. >> i think it's very important that we work together to get this thing done as fast as possible. the harder the sanctions, the tougher the economic vice around the putin regime, the more we can do to help the ukrainians. i think the faster that this thing can be over. >> putin was banking on a nato being split. my early conversation in december a

russian owned super yachts have been spotted heading to the maldives, seychelles and montenegro to avoid. the exodus comes as the biden administration announces a new federal task force designed to track down these luxury assets. the white house is also planning additional sanctions, including prohibiting oligarchs from traveling to the us, we're adding dozens of names that will most including one of russia's wealthiest billionaires, and i'm banning travel to america, but by more than 50 russian oligarchs, their families and their close associates in france . authorities say they seized a yacht belonging to igor section he's considered a close friend of russian president vladimir putin. in germany. authorities reportedly seized billionaire alisher it was men off $600 million vessel while here in the uk billionaire roman abramovich announced plans to sell the chelsea football club. he owns one of the world's largest yachts and reportedly has close ties to putin. mhm. which he denies. uk officials have vowed to sanction russian oligarchs, british foreign secretary list trust says legal thr
