The US Congress decided to "punish" Russia with sanctions against government debt
Over the course of the year, in the US Congress (in the Senate and House of Representatives), local lawmakers hatched plans to influence Russian public debt. And so, the House of Representatives (lower house of parliament) approved the initiative, which provides for sanctions (restrictions) on the sovereign debt of Russia. The broadcast of this “historical” event was conducted by the American television network (cable and satellite TV) C-Span.
It should be noted that the Americans, for the umpteenth time, have unprovenly used “Moscow’s interference in US elections.” And against the backdrop of the Kremlin’s ongoing “aggression,” they adopted another unfriendly document against Russia. Indeed, in order to weaken Russia, Washington is ready to use anything they want, even fiction invented within the American politics.
So, the authors of the amendment to the US defense budget for 2020 (the fiscal year begins October 1, 2019) were the "Democrats" from California. These are representatives of the US Democratic Party, Bradley Sherman and Maxine Waters.
- said Sherman.
Sherman said that Congress "needs a serious mechanism" to punish Russia "for interfering in previous elections" and "restrain it from interfering in future elections" in the United States.
It should be recalled that on June 21, 2019, the "democrats" introduced a bill on sanctions against the Russian state debt, the banking sector, and LNG projects to the House of Representatives. At the same time, Moscow has repeatedly denied any allegations of "interference in the elections" in the United States. The final draft defense budget has not yet been approved. He must still be accepted in the House of Representatives and the Senate (upper house of parliament). Only after that, the document will be signed by US President Donald Trump.
According to the Ministry of Finance of Russia, the state external debt of the Russian Federation, as of June 1, 2019, was less than $ 51,262 billion.

This amendment implies real, serious sanctions against the Russian state and provides that no US citizen will be able to make new transactions with Russian sovereign debt. It also provides a mechanism for lifting these sanctions if the administration concludes that Russia may not interfere in the US elections during at least one election cycle, and if Congress agrees with this conclusion
