Action Plan on Strengthening Sanctions against the Russian Federation, April 19, 2022

Prepared by KSE Institute

During the last week little progress in the sanction implementation process was observed compared to previous two weeks. Discussion on oil embargo within the 6th EU sanction package continues to be one of the main bottlenecks. Nevertheless, the greatest progress last week was made in the following blocks: 5. Strengthen Individual Sanctions against these Categories of Individuals (+50 individuals, inc. UK sanctions to Alina Kabayeva), 6. Intensify Sanctions on SOEs (+19, UK (RF Railways), New Zealand (+3 SOEs in defense) and Australia (1 PMC Wagner, 12 SOEs in media and 2 RB SOEs in defense). In addition, progress is observed in 7. Expand Export Controls and Ban Imports (Japan banned export of cutting-edge goods). A slow progress is observed in 10. Deepen Coordination of Sanctions and Link Sanctions Relief to Peace and Reconstruction (UK is working on the possibility of using the frozen Russian assets to help Ukraine). There is no progress this week in Blocks 1. Expand Oil and Gas Sanctions, 2. Increase Transportation and Insurance-Related Sanctions and 9. Increase Transparency to Discourage Trade with and Investment in Russia. Important statement was made in 3. Impose New Financial Sanctions (US, The Biden Administration is ready to completely block Russia’s ability to pay the owners of US bonds from May 25) and 8. Impose Secondary Sanctions (US plans to include its in its financial crime strategy).

DETAILED ANALYSIS

1. Expand Oil and Gas Sanctions — no new sanctions; G7 (made an obligation to introduce a ban of import RF`s oil), EU (no consensus yet on oil embargo), Poland refused from RF gas in response to RF cut off

G7. Leaders of G7 countries made an obligation to introduce a ban of import RF`s oil, “First, we commit to phase out our dependency on Russian energy, including by phasing out or banning the import of Russian oil.”

EU. No final decision on 6th package (oil embargo was blocked by Hungary, EU continues to negotiate with Hungary).

RF. On Apr 27, Gazprom halted gas supplies to Bulgaria (Bulgargaz) and Poland (PGNiG), since both companies refused to pay for gas in rubles. Against this background, gas prices in the EU rose by 21%, to $1,350 per thousand m3.

Bulgaria.
Bulgaria has threatened to block transit of Russian gas to Serbia and Hungary. Bulgarian GoV intends to review contracts with Gazprom, including those for the transit of gas through the Turkish Stream pipeline to Serbia and Hungary.

Poland. In response to the cutoff Polish PM said that Poland can already refuse Russian gas. Previously, Poland suggested taxing oil and gas from Russia in Europe. PGNiG called the cutoff of supplies a breach of contract.

Moldova. Moldova hasn’t yet received a response from Gazprom regarding the postponement of the obligation to conduct a debt audit — supply of Russian gas from May 1 is questionable. In case Gazprom stops supplying, the country plans to buy gas from international traders — 7 international companies, including Romania, Poland and the Netherlands.

Finland. Country cut RF oil imports by 70% in Mar, replacing it with a product from Norway. Gasum (Finnish SOE) refused to pay for gas in rubles and submitted a lawsuit against Gazprom to the International Arbitration due to this demand. It also stated that it would not accept such terms of trade.

2. Increase Transportation and Insurance-Related Sanctions — new sanction from USA (ban RF vessels from US ports + SDN for RF SOE shipping company + 6 private shipping companies + 1 maritime engineering company + 69 vessels), Norway (close its borders and ports to Russian trucks and ships), Canada (1 manufacturer of gas turbine engines)

USA. The White House issued a proclamation banning Russian-affiliated vessels from entering U.S. ports, effective Apr 28, 2022. Banned vessels include Russian-flagged vessels, vessels owned by Russian persons, and vessels that are Russian operated. The order authorizes the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to issue regulations to implement the ban.

The US Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) issued an order temporarily denying all export privileges for the Russian cargo aircraft carrier Aviastar due to “ongoing violations” of the United States’ export controls on Russia. Aviastar is headquartered in Moscow and provides various cargo services to Russia. The temporary denial order (TDO) states that Aviastar used US-origin aircraft subject to the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) on recent flights into Russia without authorization from BIS, in violation of US controls on the export of aviation-related items to Russia. The TDO prohibits Aviastar from participating in any transactions subject to the EAR, including exports from the United States and re-exports of items subject to the EAR from abroad, for 180 days. In particular, this means that the airlines cannot operate U.S.-manufactured aircraft nor obtain U.S.-manufactured parts for purposes of even routine repair or maintenance on their aircraft, whether manufactured in the United States or elsewhere.

On 8 May, the Department of State designated 8 Russian maritime-related companies. This includes the RF MinDefense’s shipping company, Oboronlogistika OOO, as well as private Russian maritime shipping companies that transport weapons and other military equipment for the RF GoV — SC South LLC, JSC Northern Shipping Company, Transmorflot LLC, M Leasing LLC, Marine Trans Shipping LLC, Nord Project LLC Transport Company. The Department of State also took action against vessels these maritime shipping companies have an interest in with the addition of 69 vessels to the Department of the Treasury’s SDN List.

The Department of State also designated one Russian maritime engineering company (OOO Fertoing) that works with the RG GoV and Russian SOEs (complex marine surveys, navigational, hydrographic and underwater technical support for the construction and operation of facilities for subsea production complexes, offshore, river, and pipeline transport).

Norway. Norway announced that it will Close its borders and ports to Russian trucks and ships from 7 May. Russian fishing vessels, which often land their catch at ports in northern Norway, will receive exemptions from sanctions.

Canada. On 6 May, amended the Special Economic Measures (Russia) Regulations added the UEC Klimov JSC (manufactures gas turbine engines, main gearboxes and accessory drive gearboxes for transport aircraft) company to the list.

U.S. persons must also formally “block” (freeze and report) any property or interests in property of the banks.

OFAC for the 1st time designated RF virtual currency mining company Bitriver AG and its 10 Russia-based subsidiaries as SDNs. This prohibits U.S. and U.S. citizens from operating on Bitriver or its property and interests, and requires US individuals to formally freeze any property or interests owned by Bitriver that they own or control.

On 8 May, OFAC designated a Russian state-owned bank JSC Moscow Industrial Bank (MIB) and 10 of its subsidiaries: Agropromyshlenny Kompleks Voronezhski OOO, Anninskii Elevator OOO, Auditkonsalt OOO, Belinveststroi OOO, Dve Stolitsy OOO, Kontrakt OOO, Ladoga OOO, Nekommercheskaya Organizatsiya Fond Khimicheskoe Razoruzhenie I Konversiya, Azovskaya Zernovaya Kompaniya OOO, Ekspluatiruyushchaya Kompaniya Tsentr OOO.

On 26 April, the Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation announced the amendment of 195 entries on the UK asset freeze list. Those amendments were made to update the “statement of reasons” for the relevant listings which had originally been made under the new “urgent procedure”. The urgent procedure allows the UK to designate individuals and entities who have already been designated under sanctions imposed by certain other jurisdictions. However, listings made under the urgent procedure must be “recertified” after a set period, requiring the UK government to confirm that it has reasonable grounds to suspect that the person meets the criteria for designation under the relevant UK sanctions legislation.

On May 4, the UK additionally sanctioned +31 individuals[5] with asset freezes and travel bans. Many of sanctioned individuals are actors from mainstream media organisations[6].

On 9 May, the UK amended the listings of 82 people under its Russia sanctions regime. All relate to people designated under the urgent procedure on 15, 24 or 31 March 2022. Statements of reasons for 79 people were amended to remove them as urgent procedure listings.

UK. Expanded the list of products facing import bans — silver, wood products and high-end products from RF including caviar. A further package of goods are subject to additional 35% duties, when imported from RF and RF (~ £130 mln worth).

On 29 Apr, the UK introduced new trade sanctions measures relating to internet services and online media services.

This will likely take the form of URL blocking; Application stores, including those on smartphones, must take reasonable steps to prevent UK-based users from downloading or otherwise accessing an application provided by a designated person.

The instrument confers powers on the Secretary of State to designate persons to whom these online restrictions will apply. The instrument also confers on the Office of Communications (OFCOM) the power to impose civil monetary penalties, of up to £1 mln on a person who fails to comply with the new trade sanctions. Failing to comply with the new sanctions is also a criminal offense.

On 4 May, the UK announced a ban on services exports to Russia, including management consulting, accounting and PR services.

On May 9, the UK announced new sanctions against RF and RB — 35% duty for ~£1.4bn of imports will be imposed, including on palladium, platinum and chemicals.

USA. The Director of OFAC, in consultation with the Department of State, has determined that E.O. 14071 now applies to the following categories of services: accounting, trust and corporate formation, and management consulting services. As a result, the prohibitions of E.O. 14071 include the exportation, reexportation, sale, or supply, directly or indirectly, from the US or by a U.S. person, wherever located, of accounting, trust and corporate formation, or management consulting services to any person located in Russia. This Determination takes effect on June 7, 2022.

The Department of Commerce Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) issued a final rule to expand export controls on equipment and other items that are widely used by Russian industry. The final rule imposes a U.S. license requirement on exports, reexports, and transfers of hundreds of common industrial and commercial items, including “wood products, industrial engines, boilers, motors, fans, and ventilation equipment, bulldozers, and many other items with industrial and commercial applications.” In total, 205 HTS codes at the 6-digit level and 478 corresponding 10-digit Schedule B numbers were added to the list of items subject to Russian industry sector export controls.

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission will suspend general licenses that previously permitted export of source material, special nuclear material, byproduct material, and deuterium to Russia.

Switzerland. With the decision of 27 Apr, Switzerland implemented the new measures adopted by the EU on 8 Apr. The new measures include far-reaching sanctions on goods, including a ban on imports of lignite and coal as well as on goods that are important sources of revenue for Russia (e.g. timber, cement, seafood, caviar). In addition, there are export bans on goods that can help strengthen Russia’s industrial capacities (e.g. industrial robots or certain chemical products).

Japan. On 10 May, bans on exports to 71 organizations[14] designated as specific organizations in RF by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Notification. Also bans on the export of cutting-edge goods to the RF were announced.

On 13 May, the Japan Cabinet introduced a ban on the export of cutting-edge goods (quantum computers, 3D printers, etc[15]) destined for Russia. Based on this, the Cabinet Order to partially revise the Export Trade Control Ordinance was approved by the Cabinet, and it will implement the measures from May 20th. In addition, due to the amendment of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry notification, service transactions related to the above export bans will also be subject to regulation.

Taiwan. On 6 May, Taiwan’s GoV imposed controls on exports of strategic high-tech products in 57 categories to RB. The restrictions bar Taiwanese companies from exporting a long list of tech products there without special permission. The move is largely symbolic given Taiwan’s minimal levels of direct trade with RB or RF. The export control list includes equipment for making semiconductors, electronic components, telecommunications equipment, software, as well as lasers and navigation systems. Taiwan’s government revised the “List of high-tech goods exported to Russia” to “List of high-tech goods exported to RF and RB”.

8. Impose Secondary Sanctions — USA plans to include secondary sanctions in its financial crime strategy. They are also considering sanctions against unscrupulous banks that help circumvent sanctions. There are no new sanctions, but companies start to fear imposition of secondary sanctions.

China. The Chinese UnionPay payment system backs away from Russian banks on secondary sanctions fears. Under the pressure of US sanctions and suppliers, Chinese technology companies are closing down business in Russia without making official statements. According to the Chinese government, China’s exports to Russia in Mar fell by a total of 27% compared to Feb. Exports of technological products fell particularly sharply. Thus, the supply of laptops decreased by more than 40%, smartphones — by two thirds, base stations — by 98%. Chinese tech giants such as Lenovo and Xiaomi are publicly refusing to do business with Russia — WSJ.

UK. Revolut cannot obtain a banking license in the UK due to links with the RF: father of co-founder of Revolut Mykola Storonskiy is the top manager of Gazprom’s structure.

Germany. German Deutsche Bank has stopped working with a number of large Russian banks, which have opened correspondent accounts in euros, writes RBC. Such a decision, in particular, is associated with the risk of secondary sanctions.

USA. The US Treasury Department is to include fighting against circumvention of anti-Russian sanctions in its new strategy to combat various financial violations and crimes. It is noted that a set of measures is aimed at identifying the assets of Russian entrepreneurs “hidden” in the US, as well as to increase the transparency of financial activities related to offshore companies, and counteracting “all forms of illegal financing”.

The US may extend the sanctions against foreign banks that provide support to citizens and financial institutions of the RF that are subject to restrictions. The US plans to increase fines and other penalties for companies that violate export control rules for countries like Russia and China. Chinese authorities are extremely negative about US plans to tighten fines for violators of export control rules in RF and China. The US sees no systematic attempts by China to circumvent Western measures to tighten export controls on Russia, US Secretary of Commerce.

9. Increase Transparency to Discourage Trade with and Investment in Russia — no new sanctions; USA (prepares respective bill + published Sample Letter to Companies Regarding Disclosures Pertaining to Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine and Related Supply Chain Issues), Germany (intends to oblige Russians under sanctions to report property in Germany)

USA. A bill to oblige public companies to disclose their ties to Russia and other aggressor countries was registered.

The SEC has released an illustrative letter that contains sample comments that the Division of Corporation Finance may issue to companies based on their specific facts and circumstances related to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and related supply chain issues.

The SEC notes companies may have disclosure obligations under the federal securities laws related to the direct or indirect impact that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the international response have had or may have on their business. To satisfy these obligations, the Division of Corporation Finance believes that companies should provide detailed disclosure, to the extent material or otherwise required, regarding:

direct or indirect exposure to Russia, Belarus, or Ukraine through their operations, employee base, investments in Russia, Belarus, or Ukraine, securities traded in Russia, sanctions against Russian or Belarusian individuals or entities, or legal or regulatory uncertainty associated with operating in or exiting Russia or Belarus,

direct or indirect reliance on goods or services sourced in Russia or Ukraine or, in some cases, in countries supportive of Russia, actual or potential disruptions in the company’s supply chain, or business relationships, connections to, or assets in, Russia, Belarus, or Ukraine.

The SEC also notes financial statements may also need to reflect and disclose the impairment of assets, changes in inventory valuation, deferred tax asset valuation allowance, disposal or exiting of a business, de-consolidation, changes in exchange rates, and changes in contracts with customers or the ability to collect contract considerations. In addition, since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, many companies have experienced heightened cybersecurity risks, increased or ongoing supply chain challenges, and volatility related to the trading prices of commodities regardless of whether they have operations in Russia, Belarus, or Ukraine that warrant disclosure.

The SEC urges companies to consider how these matters affect management’s evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures, management’s assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, and the role of the board of directors in risk oversight of any action or inaction related to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, including consideration of whether to continue or to halt operations or investments in Russia and/or Belarus.

Germany. Country wants to oblige Russians who fell under sanctions to report property in Germany.

10. Deepen Coordination of Sanctions and Link Sanctions Relief to Peace and Reconstruction — USA and Canada (are preparing legislative acts to use sanctioned assets for compensation to Ukraine), US doesn’t have legal authority to seize CBR assets frozen due to its invasion of Ukraine, EU (launched discussion on this issue, working on the possibility of using the frozen Russian assets to help Ukraine), Germany (considers possibility)

USA. On Apr 29, the Biden Administration announced a legislative proposal aimed at empowering the U.S. GoV to seize and forfeit property linked to Russian elites. Specifically, the proposed system would enhance and streamline the seizure and forfeiture of Russian oligarch assets and provide for the liquidation and redistribution of proceeds to support Ukraine.

The US doesn’t have legal authority to seize CBR assets frozen due to its invasion of Ukraine — US Treasury Secretary. However, the US continues but talks with partners over ways to make Russia foot the bill for Ukraine’s post-war reconstruction are starting.

Canada. On 02.05, Canada proposed new power to seek forfeiture of sanctioned persons’ assets. Currently, the Special Economic Measures Act (“SEMA”) and the Justice for Victims of Corrupt Foreign Officials Act (Sergei Magnitsky Law) (“Magnitsky Law”) allow the Governor in Council to make orders under certain conditions, such as where a grave breach of international peace of security has occurred or gross and systematic human rights violations have been committed in a foreign state. Such orders may include causing certain property located in Canada to be “seized, frozen, or sequestrated”. The proposed amendments to SEMA would allow proceeds received from the disposition of forfeited property to be used for the following purposes: the reconstruction of a foreign state adversely affected by a grave breach of international peace and security; the restoration of international peace and security; and the compensation of victims of a grave breach of international peace and security, gross and systematic human rights violations or acts of significant corruption.

EU. EU countries should consider using frozen Russian foreign exchange reserves to pay for Ukraine’s recovery after the war, President of European Diplomacy Josep Borrell said.

The EU is working on the possibility of using the frozen Russian assets to help Ukraine. In addition, the European Commission intends to simplify the process of property confiscation that was obtained illegally in order to effectively implement sanctions against RF.

Germany. Country is considering the confiscation of foreign assets of CBR.
