Feb 21, 2024
The package of new large-scale sanctions against Russia will target, among other things, the Russian military machine and the regime that persecutes oppositionists.
This was reported by RBC-Ukraine regarding a statement by US State Department spokesman Matthew Miller.
"We are always looking for additional ways in which we can suppress the Russian military machine, deprive the Russian military-industrial complex of components that it must use to support its military efforts and bring to justice those involved," the US State Department spokesman said.
He noted that all the details will be announced on Friday, February 22, but noted that "it will be a powerful package of sanctions" against Russia.
Miller also emphasized that measures will be taken to ensure the implementation of previous sanctions imposed on the Russian regime.
Separately, sanctions will be imposed directly related to the death of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny.
