Overview
- A presidential decree published on January 17 names two Russian organizations and three individuals for Ukrainian sanctions.
- Those listed include Paralympic Committee head Pavel Rozhkov, boxer Yakov Bukin, and e-sports player Dmitriy Smit, known as Dilvish.
- The measures typically block assets in Ukraine, annul licenses, restrict official visits, halt cooperation, and prohibit transfers of intellectual property.
- Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said the Ukrainian sanctions do not require a response, and Russian coverage characterizes their impact as limited.
- TASS reports a 10-year term for sanctions against the Federation of Computer Sports of Russia and its president, and Smit called the move a “quality mark” of his work.
