As stated in the material, these restrictions allow Washington to punish foreign firms for doing business with sanctioned Russian companies.
As an example, the December decree of American leader Joe Biden is cited, according to which foreign banks may lose access to the US financial system if they do business with the Russian military-industrial complex.
“Some US allies consider secondary sanctions an excess of Washington’s authority,” the publication writes.
Earlier, United States President Joe Biden said that the United States was introducing more than 500 anti-Russian sanctions.
Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev noted that the new anti-Russian sanctions of Western countries are directed not only against the authorities or business, but also against the entire population of Russia.
