As Russia Feels Effects of Multilateral Sanctions Campaign, Treasury Takes Further Action Against Russiaโs International Supply Chains
"Treasury is aware of Russian efforts to facilitate sanctions evasion by opening new overseas branches and subsidiaries of Russian financial institutions. Foreign regulators and financial institutions should be cautious about any dealings with overseas branches or subsidiaries of Russian financial institutions, including efforts to open new branches or subsidiaries of Russian financial institutions that are not themselves sanctioned. "

@AkomoCombine Hungary needs to be kicked out of NATO and the EU. Let it join the CIS.
@LiberalLibrarian Suddenly the posturing by the "Axis of resistance", China and Russia makes sense the last 2 years.
These are significant sanctions. Looks like painstakingly put together quietly while Russia, Iran and China flapped their gums.
