Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich — who is acting as an informal facilitator of Russia-Ukraine peace talks — convinced the Kremlin to allow Zoom meetings between the two countries, $4 reported Friday.
The exchange is one example of the different ways Abramovich has served as a middleman amid conflict resolution between the two countries, including the facilitation of $4.
According to Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, the businessman currently sanctioned by both the UK and EU "is involved in ensuring certain contacts between the Russian and Ukrainian sides."
Abramovich was photographed at peace talks held in Istanbul earlier this week. Peskov told reporters that while both Russia and Ukraine have approved the oligarch's involvement, he is not an "official member of the delegation."
Zoom did not respond to Insider's request for comment about the use of its video conferencing application in the peace negotiations, and Abramovich was not able to be reached by Insider.
The Journal's report — which is based on conversations with Ukrainian officials, including Arakhamia — comes amid growing scrutiny surrounding the oligarch's unconventional role in the conflict resolution process.

"I have no idea what Mr. Abramovich is claiming or doing. He is not a part of the negotiation team," he said, later adding: "I don't know if he's buying his way out somehow or if he's really useful, that's very difficult to tell."
