“I signed two decrees on sanctions against those who work for Russian aggression. These are officials of the aggressor state, its defense industry – hundreds of companies – and claborators. It is about more than 650 newly sanctioned persons. The NSDC will continue this work. And none of those who help terrorists, work for them, supply or manufacture weapons for terror – none will escape responsibility,” the Head of State said.
