  • Client Update U.S. Issues Guidance on Sanctions Relating to Russia's
    Client Update 1 October 30, 2017 Client Update U.S. Issues Guidance on Sanctions Relating to Russia’s Defense and Intelligence Sectors On Friday, October 27, the U.S. Department of State issued public guidance on the implementation of Section 231 of the Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (CAATSA). Section 231 of CAATSA requires the U.S. President to impose potential sanctions against individuals or entities that knowingly engage in “significant transactions” with persons that are a part of, or operating for or on behalf of, Russia’s defense or intelligence sectors. An overview of CAATSA is provided in our Client Update of July 28, 2017. The new guidance is accompanied by a list of entities considered to be operating in Russia’s defense or intelligence sectors. The guidance indicates, however, that not all large transactions with the listed entities will be considered “significant.” Rather, the State Department will focus largely on defense-related or intelligence-related transactions. Section 231 of CAATSA authorizes sanctions for conduct engaged on or after August 2, 2017, with any sanctions imposed becoming effective on or after January 29, 2018. The State Department also has stated that it intends, when possible, to “work with” persons contemplating transactions with the listed persons to help avoid sanctionable transactions. DEFENSE AND INTELLIGENCE SECTORS Over thirty entities, listed in the appendix to this update, are identified in the guidance as persons that are part of, or operating for or on behalf of, Russia’s defense or intelligence sectors. As the State Department’s guidance makes clear, the entities named in the guidance are not subject to U.S.

E-mail: [email protected] Summary The article analyses dynamics of Russian outward foreign direct investment (OFDI), especially in nine countries of the Baltic Sea region. Special attention is paid to the current period of the Russian investment expansion which began in 2014. After the drop in oil prices, coup d’etat in Ukraine and the start of ”sanctions wars” with Western countries Russian OFDI is seriously influenced by economic stagnation in Russia, several geopolitical factors and changing strategies of gradually maturing Russian MNEs. Examples of many Russian MNEs in the Baltic Sea region show different attitude to Russian investors in various countries of this region. Infrastructure sector has become the most politically sensitive field of Russian OFDI.

Forskningsinstituten sysslar i huvudsak med att utveckla forskningsidéer för militär tillämpning. Konstruktionsbyråerna utvecklar och testar prototyper. Vetenskapliga produktionsassociationer kombinerar FoU- verksamhet med egen tillverkningskapacitet. Sammantaget består försvars- industrins FoU-komponent av nästan 600 organisationer. Av dessa är cirka 300 forskningsinstitut, knappt 130 konstruktionsbyråer och ungefär 170 vetenskapliga produktionsassociationer. Geografiskt är FoU-organisationerna koncentrerade till större städer. I och omkring Moskva finns nästan hälften av alla FoU-institut, medan St. Petersburg har en femtedel av instituten. Den militära FoU-strukturen kan indelas i sju huvud- sakliga branscher: flyg, rymdteknologi, skeppsbyggnad, konventionella vapen, radioelektronik och kommunikationssystem, ammunition och speciella kemikalier samt kärnteknik.
