The U.S. Treasury on Monday said it's prohibiting any transactions with the Central Bank of the Russian Federation, as well as Russia's national wealth fund and the Russian Ministry of Finance. It also sanctioned the Russian Direct Investment Fund as well as its CEO, Kirill Dmitriev, who the agency said was a known Putin ally.
"This action effectively immobilizes any assets of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation held in the United States or by U.S. persons, wherever located," said the statement. The Office of Foreign Assets Control is issuing a general license to authorize certain energy-related transactions with the Central Bank of the Russian Federation.
