Russian Gets Its Own “Entities” List

Russian Gets Its Own “Entities” List
​

In response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and its recognition of two independent states that are part of the country, the US Bureau of Industry & Security has issued a number of sanctions under the Export Administration Regulations that have been primarily reserved for individuals, institutions, and companies that the US government sees asa threat to US security.  The new measures impose a Commerce Control List for Russia, adds two ‘direct product’ rules specific to Russian military end users, other than food and medicine, and Russian government and state-owned end-users.  Further the rules impose export and transfer rules on the ‘so-called’ Donetsk People’s Republic and Luhansk People’s Republic regions of Ukraine and Crimea.  As with other entities on the list, all transactions with list members requires a license that would be granted by the DOC.
While the full text has not been released, what we have seen so far are restrictions including items that while are not sensitive technology components, tools, or software, but can be used to produce them by Russian end-users, similar to those placed on Huawei (pvt).  There are over 45 specific Russian government entities that are being added to the list, primarily research institutions, aircraft manufacturers, and similar companies, while two companies are being added after attempting to acquire US origin items in support of ‘nuclear explosive activities’.  The list of ‘new entries’ is below:
