The article critiques the Trump administration’s “gold‑card” visa program, which grants foreign investors who spend $1 million the right to live and work in the United States, highlighting its comedic failure as only one applicant has been approved despite the administration’s claim of $1.3 billion in revenue. CNN commentators mocked the discrepancy, joking about the buyer being Vladimir Putin and comparing the scheme to a cartoon villain’s plot, while political analyst S.E. Cupp warned that the fiasco reflects deeper concerns about America’s global standing and the diminishing appeal of such “golden visas.” The piece notes that similar resident‑by‑investment programs exist worldwide, but they are controversial because they can harm local housing markets, lack transparency, and attract money‑laundering and tax‑evasion activities.

The Guardian | Revealed: UK oil refinery owner moved Russian loans to offshore subsidiary where sanctions did not apply by Rob Davies, Atika Rehman, Jess Staufenberg and Marcus Leroux

Essar Energy, the Indian‑owned parent of the Stanlow refinery in Cheshire, shifted billions of pounds of Russian‑sourced loans from a Cyprus‑based entity to a subsidiary in the tax‑haven of Mauritius after the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, a move that allowed the loans from Kremlin‑controlled VTB to remain outside the reach of Western sanctions. Although Essar asserts that the transaction complied with UK, EU and other sanctions law on the advice of a leading law firm, sanctions experts and forensic accountants say the restructuring raises “red‑flag” concerns of possible sanctions circumvention, pointing to new rouble exposure and an apparent “enhancement” of the VTB debt. The transfer was approved by Cypriot authorities, but both Cyprus and Mauritius are now examining whether Essar violated EU sanctions regulations, and MPs—including the chair of the Business Select Committee—are urging UK officials to launch an investigation into the company’s continued financial ties with VTB, which they describe as “Putin’s piggy bank.”
