GREEK BUSINESSMAN ALLEGED TO HAVE VIOLATED UKRAINE SANCTIONS

On 25 May, KYC 360 reported an EU Observer story concerning Greek billionaire, Ivan Savvidi. 62 and born in Georgia.  Despite the EU having banned EU nationals from doing business in Russia-occupied Crimea and blacklisting people who harmed “the territorial integrity” of Ukraine.  However, the Savvidi family is involved in Crimea food-supply, according to a paper trail seen by EU Observer and by the EU foreign service.  Savvidi has also had business dealings in the Russia-occupied Donbas region in eastern Ukraine, according to Ukrainian authorities, and he has openly funded pro-Russian occupation propaganda events.
