The US Treasury announced new anti-Russian sanctions

49
The US administration is working on sanctions against the "Russian oligarchs" in the framework of the "Law on Counteracting the Enemies of America," reports Lenta.ru report statement of the Minister of Finance of the country Stephen Mnuchin.





We are working on it. They will be announced in the near future,
Mnuchin said at a briefing in the White House, responding to a question about the list of people who will be blacklisted.

Earlier it was reported that the list may include more than 50 people, and together with family members - up to 300. All of them are high-ranking officials and businessmen close to the leadership of the Russian Federation. At the same time, the US Democratic Party fears that Donald Trump will not want to apply restrictive measures to the Russians from the Kremlin report in order not to spoil relations with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Recall that in October, the US State Department 2017 published a list of 33 Russian enterprises, cooperation with which could threaten contractors with sanctions. New restrictions may be introduced in February of this year. Potential sanctions apply to all counterparties, regardless of the country of the legal entity or individual.

            Excellent position, only the people still do not understand something.
            But there were no anti-Russian sanctions, they were personal.

            you are somehow illogical: the USA punishes those who rob and export loot to the USA? something, but they know how to count and make money out of the blue ... better than all the Jews, perhaps. but the latter do it "as they breathe"))

            It’s hard to disagree with you .. good Only there is a sadness that some pirates will take the loot from other pirates and not be returned to the country, from where they first stole .. And about the savings bank. wink .

    Apparently, soon there will be new taxes and price increases in Russia so that Russian oligarchs can minimize losses from sanctions.

      The financial losses of Russian embezzlers will be compensated by the Russian state with money from the family budgets of the Russian people. Raising prices and taxes provided.

    Comrade Stalin is simply a model of legality in comparison with "developed democracy." The collective responsibility of Russian athletes, the prosecution of people without a court sentence, in this case, the Russian oligarchs. Still, at least some formal judicial procedure would have to be carried out. In general, a wonderful democratic future, the dream of a Russian liberal.

    I think the remnants of all funds will go to save the money of these very affected Russians. The banks in the crisis that they themselves arranged were the first to save, and now thanks to the amers, they use the entire Kudrin pillow to save Putin’s friends and their children

    We are working on it. They will be announced in the near future.

    This is something: the finance minister is working on sanctions. This is part of his job responsibilities. There is staff for this. In the morning, they come to work like this, look at the US debt, listen to sad financial romances, and then “eureka” - but let's better come up with sanctions and apply them, maybe the indicators will improve. And the management will be glad that we are not idle.

      The oligarchs will not be afraid of anything - they will be exempted from taxes and compensated at the expense of the budget. These sanctions should excite ordinary Russians.

        Well, Honduras really want to overthrow the evil tyrant Putin, and they’re stereotyped, as they’re used to. One you don’t understand, we won’t do it anymore, we remember the 90s very much, and people in 90% of the population know that Honduras is nothing but the collapse of the homeland does not want.

          Do not brand the case. My koment, in general, is the opposite. Just someone sees Putin as a savior, and someone has already ceased to be naive.
          And people really remember the 90s. You (and the majority) are anxious, "they" (including the sun-faced one) - with nostalgia, for the same amount you can no longer steal / sell.
