More than 20 Russian businessmen and politicians have filed lawsuits with the General Court of the European Union because sanctions were imposed on them after Russia’s attack on Ukraine, Politico reported.

Among them is Roman Abramovich, the former owner of the Chelsea football club, whose sanctions were imposed in March due to the alleged benefits he had due to his close ties with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

This is not the first time that the oligarchs have sued the European Union over the sanctions imposed on them, and many have won legal battles in the past. Among them was former Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych, to whom the European Union once froze money in accounts in Western banks.

Trials before the General Court take months and some years.
