FILE - Then Chelsea soccer club owner Roman Abramovich attends the UEFA Women's Champions League final soccer match against FC Barcelona in Gothenburg, Sweden, May 16, 2021. On Wednesday, Dec. 20, 2023, Abramovich lost in his legal attempt to overturn sanctions slapped by the European Union for his role in the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Abramovich had filed a lawsuit at the EU's general court against the European Union Council, which last year imposed punishment on the 57-year-old oligarch as part of measures targeting Russia and President Vladimir Putin's close allies.
