The American administration is considering the possibility of including in the new sanctions list of the Russian Ministry of Defense, a number of defense enterprises and a company associated with the administration of Russian President Vladimir Putin. This was reported by the news agency RIA Novosti.

The draft document includes a federal state unitary enterprise, the Russian military department, its subordinate center, enterprises of the military-industrial complex and civilian industry, as well as the forensic center of the Central Internal Affairs Directorate for the Nizhny Novgorod Region.
