The Biden administration made a move after Russia’s national currency bounced back despite sanctions. During a press conference on Thursday, White House Communications Director Kate Bedingfield said the Biden administration will respond by simply adding more sanctions.
Bedingfield announced an additional 120 Russian entities will be unable to buy cutting edge U.S. technology without a license.
