US Sanctions Target China-Russia Military Technology Transfer and Mutual Support.

This Act mandates financial and visa sanctions against individuals and entities in China and Russia that knowingly support the Russian defense industry or enhance China's military capabilities near Taiwan. For US citizens and businesses, this means stricter compliance requirements and severe penalties for engaging in transactions with sanctioned foreign parties. The goal is to protect US national security by undermining the mutual military support between these nations.
Key points
Mandatory blocking of assets and denial of US entry for foreign persons facilitating the transfer of military or dual-use technology (like CNC tools or chemical components for munitions) between China and Russia.
Sanctions also apply to entities procuring weapons or training from Russia that enhance the Chinese military's capabilities for operations in the Taiwan Strait.
Requires the US government to develop a coordinated strategy with allies (including the EU, UK, Japan, and South Korea) to deter this mutual military support.
