Новости рынков | Обама продлил антироссийские санкции на год

Президент США Барак Обама продлил действие антироссийских санкций на год, сообщает пресс-служба американского Белого дома.Также на год продлен специальный  режим национальной чрезвычайной ситуации в отношении России.

Санкционный режим впервые был введен в отношении российских физических и юридических лиц указами Обамы в марте 2014 года. 3 марта американский лидер объявил о пролонгации режима национальной чрезвычайной ситуации. Это коснется и ограничений, введенных в декабре прошлого года.

Накануне госсекретарь США Джон Керри заявил, что российские власти и представители самопровозглашенных Донецкой и Луганской народных республик должны поддержать реализацию минских договоренностей, в противном случае не исключено расширения санкций против России.

Заместитель главы МИД РФ Сергей Рябков заявил, что Москва готова применить «болезненные контрмеры», если США введут новые санкции в отношении России.  polit.ru/news/2015/03/04/breaking_news/

NOTICE

CONTINUATION OF THE NATIONAL EMERGENCY WITH RESPECT TO UKRAINE

Оn March 6, 2014, by Executive Order 13660, I declared a national emergency pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706) to deal with the unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States constituted by the actions and policies of persons that undermine democratic processes and institutions in Ukraine; threaten its peace, security, stability, sovereignty, and territorial integrity; and contribute to the misappropriation of its assets.

On March 16, 2014, I issued Executive Order 13661, which expanded the scope of the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13660, and found that the actions and policies of the Government of the Russian Federation with respect to Ukraine undermine democratic processes and institutions in Ukraine; threaten its peace, security, stability, sovereignty, and territorial integrity; and contribute to the misappropriation of its assets.

On March 20, 2014, I issued Executive Order 13662, which further expanded the scope of the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13660, as expanded in scope in Executive Order 13661, and found that the actions and policies of the Government of the Russian Federation, including its purported annexation of Crimea and its use of force in Ukraine, continue to undermine democratic processes and institutions in Ukraine; threaten its peace, security, stability, sovereignty, and territorial integrity; and contribute to the misappropriation of its assets.

On December 19, 2014, I issued Executive Order 13685, to take additional steps to address the Russian occupation of the Crimea region of Ukraine.

The actions and policies addressed in these Executive Orders continue to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States. For this reason, the national emergency declared on March 6, 2014, and the measures adopted on that date, on March 16, 2014, on March 20, 2014, and December 19, 2014, to deal with that emergency, must continue in effect beyond March 6, 2015.  Therefore, in accordance with section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing for 1 year the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13660.

This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and transmitted to the Congress.
