They will be linked to the so-called "Kremlin list" published in late January,. On Tuesday, February 6, the head of the department Stephen Mnuchin said, responding to a question from member of the House of Representatives from the Democratic Party Maxine Waters.

He also confirmed that in the closed version of the report there are more than 210 names of businessmen and high-ranking Russian people who appear in the open part.

At the same time, Mnuchin considers restrictive measures a very effective tool and intends to continue to apply them.

Recall, as reported URA-Inform, the US Treasury Department in late January published a "Kremlin report", including in it a list of 210 people, including senior Russian officials, major businessmen, heads of state companies.

The publication of the "Kremlin report" is the implementation of the US law in early August 2017 on "Countering US adversaries through sanctions".
