"This morning, Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control is issuing guidance making clear that we are willing and able to sanction people, companies, or countries that provide ammunition to Russia or support Russia's military-industrial complex," Adeyemo said.
Additionally, the Office of Foreign Assets Control and the Department of Commerce's Bureau of Industry and Security are releasing an alert laying out actions against Russia's military-industrial complex and potential risks for those who decide to provide Moscow with material support for its special military operation in Ukraine, Adeyemo added.
