Rosselkhozbank, Moscow Credit Bank, and the Belarusian Development and Reconstruction Bank have become objects of sanctions. The Ministry of foreign affairs of Japan also confirms that from now on, Japan will not export to Russia those products that are necessary for the development of the industry of the aggressor country. The complete list of products is currently unknown, but there is information about the list includes high-tech products, technology for quantum computing, and 3D printers.
Earlier, Japan also imposed sanctions on 133 people: Russian citizens involved in organizing and waging war against Ukraine, as well as terrorist collaborators — representatives of the so-called Luhansk People's Republic, which is actually nothing more than temporarily and illegally occupied territory of Ukraine.
