A Croatian court has ruled that the $200 million yacht 'Royal Romance', seized from Viktor Medvedchuk, a former Ukrainian lawmaker known for his close ties to Putin, will be transferred to Ukraine, as reported by Elena Duma, head of the Agency for Tracing and Asset Management. Medvedchuk is currently in Russia. Separately, Win McCormack, an Oregon-based publisher and Democratic donor, was defrauded of $34 million by his husband and wife chauffeur team over seven years. The couple made exorbitant and bogus charges on McCormack's Amex card, using the funds to purchase lavish properties and a private jet, along with gold bullion and firearms.
