# New Russia, Iran, and North Korea Sanctions Become Law

 August 2, 2017

 

 

 

 

 

 

Today the President signed landmark legislation into law mandating new and enhanced sanctions on Russia, Iran, and North Korea. As noted in our prior posts, [here](http://www.ustrademonitor.com/2017/07/congress-passes-landmark-russia-sanctions/) and [here](http://www.ustrademonitor.com/2017/06/congress-takes-the-lead-in-broad-new-sanctions-against-russia/), the law will tighten existing sanctions on those countries and provide the U.S. government with broader power to penalize companies under primary and secondary sanctions rules.

Please contact our [export and sanctions team](https://www.kelleydrye.com/Our-Practices/International/Export-Controls-and-Sanctions-Compliance) with any questions about the new law and its implications.
