Read the Red Notice. By Bill Browder. The Magnitsky Act was enacted by Bill Browder after Putin killed his Attorney, Sergei Magnitsky. It prevents Russian Nationals from sending their rubles to banks where the Act bans them. Pretty much everywhere now. Putin wants his oligarchs to be able to move $ around. Desperately wants the Magnitsky act lifted. Which is why the Russians met in Trump tower with the Trumps, pre-election. The Magnitsky Act still lives. Browder’s life is in danger
