US partially lifted sanctions from the FSB

40
Information Agency TASS publishes material in which, with reference to a document by the US Treasury Department, it is reported that Washington partially lifts the sanctions regime against the FSB. We are talking about a decision taken with the United States on the basis of the so-called “General license No. XXUMX”, which was published by a division of the US Treasury responsible for sanctions policy.

The document states that the US Treasury Department allows transactions in which one of the contractors is the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation, and which were prohibited by presidential decree of the US 2015 in April and 2016 in December.



US partially lifted sanctions from the FSB


The document of the American financial department states that the department allows American citizens and companies to carry out requests, receive, use and pay for licenses, certificates and permits. We are talking about licenses and certificates issued by the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation for IT products. At the same time, certain limitations are upheld - the amount of payment from one counterparty must not exceed 5 thousand dollars per year. At the same time there is no specification of what specific areas of IT in question.

It is noted that this mitigation of the sanctions regime does not apply to transactions if they relate to export, re-export and the supply of products and technologies to the Crimea.

The head of the Kremlin press service, Dmitry Peskov, commented on this data as follows:
We know from the example of engines for missiles that the American partners never get their needs under sanctions.

        I think Trump has so far outlined his intentions, his willingness to trade in this direction. Now we will wait for what he will demand in return.

        So they (sanctions against the FSB and the GRU) were introduced only at the end of December. For a month, little can be noticed.

      Question: Does the FSB (KGB, NKVD, GPU) need this “hacker”? Is this permission? And in general, what does Russia have to do with it?

    For the FSB, sanctions need to be tightened on the contrary, why security Service Should governments use foreign-made software and hardware (IT)? They must use domestic, abound.
    And to get samples of foreign hardware and software for the subject of digging is the task of the GRU and FSTEC.

    Does this mean that now the FSB can legally recruit American citizens? The FSB catches an American spy, Officially gives him money and makes him a double agent - just lovely! Everyone is happy - America is happy that the FSB now has the right, the spies - has grabbed money, and the FSB - because it has received the informant!
