Ban on Russian Food and Farm Imports Linked to Ukraine Withdrawal.

This law bans the import of specific agricultural products, raw materials, and food from Russia into the US. The prohibition applies only to goods that Russia already bans from being imported from the US, aiming to protect American producers from market distortions. Crucially, the ban will only be lifted once Russia withdraws its military forces from Ukraine and commits to future peace.
Key points
The US prohibits the import of Russian agricultural goods if Russia maintains a ban on the same US products (reciprocal ban).
Federal agencies are forbidden from using government funds to purchase these specific Russian products.
The ban remains until Russia withdraws all military forces from Ukraine and provides credible commitments against future hostile action.
