US Announces New Russia Sanctions, Adds to Entity List

The U.S. imposed new sanctions against Russia Sept. 30 and announced it will add 57 entities to the Entity List for supporting Russia's military amid its war in Ukraine. The sanctions target members of Russia’s military-industrial complex, including various technology and defense firms, two of Russia's international suppliers and members of Russia’s legislature, the Treasury Department said. The Entity List additions, which BIS said will take effect Sept. 30, target parties that have sought to supply Russia’s military with controlled U.S. items or are involved in the country’s quantum computing industry, the Bureau of Industry and Security said in an emailed news release. Fifty of the 57 newly added entities will be subject to BIS’ Russia/Belarus Military End User Foreign Direct Product Rule, which will limit their ability to acquire certain foreign-produced goods made by or with U.S.-origin items.
