Court rejects Russian oligarch's request to restore citizenship
March 8, 2025
The Administrative Court rejected a Russian oligarch's request to reverse the decision concerning the revocation of his golden passport and that of his family. Vadim Moskowitz, a significant businessman in Russia and Cyprus, obtained Cypriot citizenship in 2017. The citizenship was revoked due to EU sanctions imposed in 2022. His lawyers are seeking a suspension of the decision, but the court found no grounds to issue such an order.
