US Treasury has introduced sanctions against 38 Russians and 15 entities, TASS reports.
Restrictions will affect Russian businessmen Alexei Miller, Viktor Vekselberg, Andrei Kostin, Suleiman Kerimov, and Oleg Deripaska. Such information has been posted on the website of the US Treasury Department on Friday.
New sanctions were imposed on Russia in response to its "malign activities across the world," a senior administration official told reporters at a special briefing.
