US prepares sanctions against Russia's energy and defense sectors

The US Department of State said about preparing new sanctions against Russia.

They will hit the country's financial, energy and defense sectors, gazeta.ru cites Marie Harf, a deputy spokesperson of the Department of State.

“The United States is finalizing measures to both deepen and broaden our sanctions across Russia’s financial, energy, and defense sectors,” the Department of State's representative said. She emphasized the US was in close coordination with the EU on the issue. Washington was earlier reported to insist that the US and EU should impose new sanctions against Russia over the situation in Ukraine.

The Council of the European Union approved a new package on sanctions against Russia on September 8.
