According to the document, the reason for imposing sanctions against Russia will be a special joint report by the Secretary of State of the United States and the head of national intelligence.
It should indicate facts confirming the interference of the Russian authorities "in democratic processes, including the holding of elections in the United States."
It is clarified that in the absence of evidence of Russia's involvement, restrictive measures can be lifted.
In addition, a similar principle of imposing or lifting sanctions is provided for “interference or support by the Russian authorities in military operations in Ukraine”.
