The Treasury Department sanctioned 328 members of the Russian Duma — as well as the Duma itself — on Thursday as President Biden met in Belgium with the leaders of NATO countries to plot the latest moves responding to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s month-old invasion of Ukraine.
The Treasury Department said in a statement that four dozen companies linked to Russia’s defense sector — including conglomerate KTRV — and the CEO of Russia’s largest bank were among entities also facing new sanctions.
“This action aligns with similar actions taken by the European Union, the United Kingdom, and Canada, and reflects continued unity to hold Putin accountable for his war of choice,” the department said.
