Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the United States has imposed a variety of unprecedented sanctions and export controls against Russia and the two regions of Ukraine that Russia has recognized as the so-called Donetsk People&rsquo;s Republic (DNR) and Luhansk People&rsquo;s Republic (LNR). Many of these sanctions have also been imposed on Belarus for its support of the invasion. The European Union, the United Kingdom and other nations have also engaged in a major effort to cut Russia off from global capital markets and limit its access to certain technologies. The sanctions have primarily targeted the financial, defense and intelligence sectors of Russia and Russian-backed regions of Ukraine. In this update, we provide an overview of the first tranche of these sanctions. A bulletin covering export controls and sanctions targeting Russia&rsquo;s defense and oil and gas industries is forthcoming.
