Africa-Press – Ethiopia. <\/strong><\/span>Chelsea owner, Roman Abramovich, is trying to broker a deal to end the war in Ukraine amid global rage over Russia\u2019s invasion.<\/p>\n

According to the Jerusalem Post, Abramovich is already in Belarus, where delegations from Russia and Ukraine are set to meet on the border town of Gomel later on Monday.<\/p>\n

Abramovich is believed to have flown into the eastern European country ahead of crunch talks between Ukrainian and Russian officials.<\/p>\n

The Russian-Israeli billionaire has been under pressure to speak out following the invasion of Ukraine by Russian forces.<\/p>\n

There have also been calls in the Ukrainian Parliament for the 55-year-old businessman to face sanctions as a major oligarch \u2018with links to the Russian State.\u2019<\/p>\n

But Abramovich vehemently denies he is close to the Kremlin or has done anything that would merit sanctions on him.<\/p>\n

On Saturday, amid the mounting pressure, Abramovich announced plans to hand over the stewardship of his club Chelsea to the Blues\u2019 charitable trust.<\/p>\n

But today, in a surprising move, a spokesman for Chelsea has now revealed that Abramovich has been \u2018trying to help\u2019 in brokering a peace deal.<\/p>\n

\u201cI can confirm that Roman Abramovich was contacted by the Ukrainian side for support in achieving a peaceful resolution and he has been trying to help ever since,\u201d a Chelsea spokesman said.<\/p>\n
