Russia export controls and sanctions
The use of export controls and sanctions on Russia has surged since the country's invasion of Crimea in 2014, and especially its invasion of Ukraine in in February 2022. Similar export controls and sanctions have been imposed by U.S. allies, including the EU, U.K. and Japan. The following is a listing of recent articles in Export Compliance Daily on export controls and sanctions imposed on Russia:
The International Trade Administration has issued the final results of its antidumping duty administrative review of magnesium metal from Russia for the period of April 1, 2008 through March 31, 2009.

The International Trade Commission has issued a report, "Shifts in U.S. Merchandise Trade 2009," an annual compendium of data and analysis examining changes in trade with key U.S. partners and in crucial U.S. industries.

Immigrations and Customs Enforcement has announced that 11 individuals and six corporations were indicted on September 1, 2010 on federal charges for allegedly participating in an international conspiracy to illegally import honey from China.
on August 31, 2010, the Economic Research Service and Foreign Agricultural Service issued their "Outlook for U.S. Agricultural Trade". They state that fiscal year 2011 agricultural exports are forecast at $113 billion, up $5.5 billion from the revised 2010 forecast. Much of the increase is due to greater grain and feed shipments, (up $4.3 billion from the revised 2010 forecast) due to sharply reduced competition from Russia, Kazakhstan, and the Ukraine. Horticultural exports are forecast up $1.7 billion from 2010 on strong demand from Canada, the EU, and Asian markets. Increased livestock and poultry product exports are expected to more than offset slight declines in dairy product exports. Cotton exports are forecast up significantly with larger domestic supplies and less export competition. The only major category expected to fall is oilseeds, due in part to increased competition from South America.
Agriculture Secretary Vilsack said in a Radionews item that he hopes current work with Russia will soon result in the reopening of that market to U.S. poultry.
