   > The Treasury Department imposed sanctions on 274 targets, while the State Department designated more than 120 and the Commerce Department added 40 companies and research institutions to a trade restriction list.

   > More than half of the individuals and entities designated for sanctions in the new round are in India, China, Switzerland, and Turkey, the Treasury Department said.

   > “The Department of State is targeting sanctions circumvention by parties in multiple third countries, several senior Russian Ministry of Defense officials and defense companies, and those that support the development of Russia’s future energy production and exports,” he added. [Blinken]

   > The sanctions take particular aim at third-country evasion, including the highest number of entities and individuals in China, Hong Kong, and India ever hit in a single round of sanctions. In addition to targets in those three countries, entities and individuals in Russia, the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, Thailand, Malaysia, and Switzerland also were designated.

   > The sanctions freeze any assets the entities and individuals hold in U.S. jurisdiction, block them from using the U.S. financial system, and bar American citizens from dealing with them.

2. I’m going to assume the company in India that supplied the Dell servers is on this list 👏

3. How about providing what’s actually needed and that’s weapons to hit long range targets.

   It’s really quite simple.
