Swedish tax authority rules sanctioned oligarch Deripaska still controls Rusal, putting Irish alumina plant under EU sanctions

Summary

Swedish tax authorities have ruled that Rusal, the metals giant owning the Aughinish Alumina refinery in Co Limerick, Ireland, remains under the control of sanctioned Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska. This determination means all of Rusal's European operations, including the Irish plant, should be subject to EU sanctions. The Shannon estuary facility faces threats from EU measures blocking large alumina exports to Russia, amid concerns the material is being used in aluminium production for Russian military equipment in the Ukraine war.
