The United States adopted a new sanctions list against Russia.
The list includes three TV channels, including Channel One, Russia, and NTV.

Restrictions will be imposed against Moscow Industrial Bank, which is in the process of takeover by the state-owned Promsvyazbank.
Also on the sanctions list are executives of Sberbank.

In addition, visa sanctions are imposed on the heads of Gazprombank, through which Russia requires making payments for gas in rubles.

The bank itself, as White House officials stressed, is not subject to sanctions. “We are not freezing its assets or blocking its accounts, but we are sending a signal that Gazprombank will not be a reliable cover,” the administration of U.S. President Joe Biden said.

An export ban is imposed on industrial goods, including bulldozers, industrial engines, and ventilation equipment. Russia will stop exporting radioactive materials.

The G7 countries have agreed to stop importing oil from Russia. No specific agreements in this area are reported.
