The oligarchs and entitles that are sanctioned by the two departments are focused on Russia's industrial base, the construction sector, the oil and gas industry and the financial sector.“With today’s sanctions, the United States is continuing our relentless work to target Russia’s military supply chains and deprive Putin of the equipment, technology, and services he needs to wage his barbaric war on Ukraine,” said Secretary of the Treasury Janet L. Yellen.
The State Department is primarily focused on imposing sanctions against individuals including designating one Russian Intelligence Services officer and one Georgian-Russian oligarch whom the FSB has leveraged to influence Georgian society and politics for the benefit of Russia. The sanctions include some of the friends of seniormost officials in the Kremlin such as Andrei Removich Bokarev and his wife, who are close friends with the Russian Defense Minister, according to the Treasury Department."Bokarev is also linked to organized crime and since 2022 has sought to evade sanctions," according to the Treasury Department.
