Limiting Sanctions on US Allies in Security Matters

This act aims to protect US cooperation with key allies like Australia, India, and Japan on security matters. Before the President can impose sanctions on these countries, a certification is required confirming their non-participation in critical security cooperation with the US. This means citizens in these countries may face fewer negative economic impacts from US sanctions, potentially stabilizing international relations.
Key points
The US President must obtain special certification before imposing sanctions on Australia, India, or Japan.
Sanctions can only be imposed if these countries are not participating in critical security cooperation with the US.
The act seeks to protect alliances and prevent unintended negative consequences for international cooperation.
