Russia gets new sanctions as Obama speaks
Russian core economy motors were added to the U.S. sanction list on Wednesday. As a result, Rosneft, Gazprombank, Novatek and Vnesheconombank are no longer able to make transactions in U.S. dollars, nor they have the ability to enter American markets to take long-term loans. These sanctions lead to significant problems for companies that do business with Russia.
