June 4, 2018

Vladimir Putin signed Federal Law On Measures (Countermeasures) against Unfriendly Actions of the United States of America and Other Foreign Countries.

The Federal Law is aimed at protecting the interests and security of the Russian Federation, its sovereignty and territorial integrity, the rights and freedoms of citizens of the Russian Federation from unfriendly actions, including the introduction of political and economic sanctions against the Russian Federation, its citizens and Russian legal entities. To achieve these goals, the Federal Law stipulates a list of measures (countermeasures) that can be applied to the United States of America and other foreign states that commit such unfriendly acts with respect to individual entities under the jurisdiction of such states, directly or indirectly controlled by them or affiliated with them, or officials and citizens of such states.
