The State Department warned businessmen about difficulties due to sanctions, export controls and import restrictions.
The agency also said that if businesses and individuals suspect they have ties to Russia or the Russian government, they should “evaluate the actual or potential consequences.”

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov noted that Western countries began to use the dollar as a weapon to solve political problems.
