Abramovich had put Chelsea up for sale, only for that process to be temporarily halted after his assets were frozen.
The sanctions are intended to stop Abramovich from making any money in the UK, including from any potential sale of Chelsea, and describe the 55-year-old as having had a "close relationship for decades" with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
And while Klopp has sympathy for his compatriot, Chelsea manager Tuchel, and his players, he said he also supported the government's decision.
"Thomas [Tuchel] and I know each other but we are not that close that we chat," he said. "Around the games, yes, but not in other moments.
"Of course I feel for him and the players and all the employees at Chelsea because it's obviously not a (nice) situation.
"It's nothing they are responsible for, what happens around.
"There is one man who is really responsible and that's Vladimir Putin. I don't know about Roman Abramovich's role in all these kind of things. But over the years you could guess that maybe he is pretty close.
"I think what the British Government did is right, to be 100% honest. But it is still not cool for the people at Chelsea and the supporters. I get that.
"But I think the things the Government did are right."
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta backed Tuchel to continue handling a difficult situation with integrity.
"I think it's an extremely difficult situation to manage and I think he will try to manage it in the best possible way, with the integrity Thomas has always shown, and try not to get too involved," said Arteta ahead of Arsenal's Super Sunday clash against Leicester. #ilot.ng
