Kremlin-backed A7 network allegedly moved $6.9 billion through global banks

The Financial Times reports that a Kremlin-backed forgery scheme moved $6.9 billion through global banks. Citing that report on September 22, 2026, Sen. Elizabeth Warren identified the network as A7 and said the Trump administration had stopped regularly sanctioning evaders aiding Russia's war effort a year and a half earlier. She said she and others had called on the administration to expose the entities behind A7.
