The US Treasury confirmed the introduction of sanctions to the date of the presidential elections in Russia

January 31 2018 56

The US Treasury Department reported on the timing of the introduction of the next package of anti-Russian sanctions on the basis of the previously published so-called “Kremlin list”. Recall that this list consists of 2-x parts: open and closed. In the open appear 210 surnames, among which are ministers of the government of the Russian Federation, heads of power structures and the largest Russian businessmen. In particular, the list includes the name of the Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev.

The secret part of the list, according to the US, is based on intelligence received.

While at a hearing in the US Senate Banking Committee, Finance Minister Stephen Mnuchin said that, based on the list, sanctions would be introduced in the “near future.”

The US Treasury confirmed the introduction of sanctions to the date of the presidential elections in Russia

At the same time, the senators expressed impatience, asking Mnuchin why the Kremlin list was left without comment from US President Donald Trump. Mnuchin evasively replied that "the administration is doing everything possible to put the sanctions in force."

US Treasury:

Sanctions are likely to work within the next month.

This once again confirms the previously suggested assumption that the sanctions were preparing for the start of the presidential campaign in Russia, which is a direct interference with the Russian elections.

      C'mon, here about Grudinin. The only adequate opponent of Putin in the elections. And immediately an agent. The main sign is probably that he is a prince, this is his school for 2 lard Speaking of birds. We heard how GDP spoke the other day. About the need to surrender the strong dynamics of the country's development for these 6 years. To keep the country going further in energy. He hinted that you will choose Medvedev again later :?

    I'm interested too. Obviously, it meant home to Russia. And that would solve a lot of problems. And the government could stay in a state close to orgasm for the entire duration of its activity. That's just, despite all sorts of "amnesty of capital" and other imitations of "improving the investment climate in the country", not a single businessman (it doesn’t matter if he earned serious money or stole), while in his right mind, will not make such a noble gesture. In any case, until the protection of business is ensured in our country, not only on paper and on television. Businessmen often talk about fabricated criminal cases against businessmen in the media, and about profitable business “squeezed” by force by mutual agreement, it’s not very good. And they don’t say anything at all about what happens to the money of a legal entity in a bank account that suddenly went bankrupt or was taken away from a license. And try to find the truth in court ...
    In short, all this return of capital in the current state of affairs is nothing more than the wet dreams of a naive schoolgirl.
    PS There is an old joke on this subject:
    Russian graduate students were invited to write an essay on the topic: "What would I do if I were the Minister of Finance of the Russian Federation"
    90% of the works ended with the phrase: "... and hell would you later find me ..."

  So far this is precisely bullying ... all against whom it is supposed to impose sanctions in the future have been introduced.
  The Americans do not understand that by doing this they only worsen the situation for themselves ... in such circumstances, the people will simply be forced to support PUTIN because everyone understands that if this is not done it will only be worse for our country ... there are as many examples around.
  
  Putin is better (no matter how bad a economist he is, but he is still our person to ask and to rightly criticize ... ) than any henchman of the US State Department in our country who will spoil our people and then leave for ZURICH in his villa, donated by his masters.

... the American authorities are just as poorly understood by Russian realities as the Russian authorities are by the US.
Only three examples:
Yury Shefler is 15 for years, as a criminal case has been opened against him in Russia and he was forced to immigrate precisely because of a conflict with Okoloputinsky "businessmen." He runs his business everywhere, all over the world, except (!) Russia!
Gleb Fetisov - was in prison in connection with a raid on him according to a scheme similar to Shefler.
Oleg Boyko - his business was virtually destroyed by Putin's legislative initiatives that killed the legal gambling business and drove him underground, under the roof of the FSB. Since then, Boyko has been doing business all over the world for many years, except (!) Russia!
All three are now, upon hitting the sanctions list, considered Putin’s “friends”. Is this not a mockery?
Or in other words, is this not a demonstration of the complete incompetence of all services of the American administration, which in one way or another are engaged in Russia?
