## Resource

Roman Abramovich’s frozen Chelsea sale proceeds—now ballooning to £2.5 billion thanks to £175 million in interest—are stuck in a UK bank account, sparking a legal and political tug-of-war. The UK government wants the cash for Ukraine, but disputes linger over whether Abramovich’s pledge covers the full amount or just profits. Complicating matters further, a Jersey criminal probe into the origins of his wealth and an unresolved £1.4 billion loan add layers of uncertainty, leaving this massive sum in financial limbo with no clear path forward.
