The UK imposed sanctions against two businessmen associated with businessman Roman Abramovich: the executive director of Millhouse Capital UK, a member of the board of directors of the Chelsea football club, Yevgeny Tenenbaum, and the deputy general director of Millhouse LLC, David Davidovich. This was reported on the website of the government of the United Kingdom.

The British authorities explained the sanctions by the fact that the businessmen are "associated" with Abramovich, who owns Millhouse Capital. The sanctions include asset freezes and transport restrictions, including a ban on ships and planes belonging to those on the sanctions list from entering UK ports and landing at UK airports. They are also prohibited from undergoing maintenance and repairs in the country.

Forbes estimates Davidovich's fortune at $650 million.

Against another business partner of Abramovich, Millhouse CEO Yevgeny Shvidler, Britain imposed sanctions on March 26.
