  • 2025-01426 — Notice of OFAC Sanctions Action
    Type:Notice
    Citation:90 FR 7763
    Reading Time:about 9 minutes

    The U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has announced the addition of several individuals and entities to the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List (SDN List). This action is based on the determination that these persons meet the legal criteria under specific Executive Orders related to harmful activities from the Russian Federation. As a result, all their property and interests within the United States are blocked, and U.S. persons are prohibited from conducting transactions with them. The listed individuals and entities are linked to Russia and China, and are involved in activities such as financial services that have been flagged as risky under U.S. sanctions regulations.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. government has made a list of certain people and companies from Russia and China that Americans are not allowed to do business with because they are involved in harmful activities. This means that anything they own in the U.S. is blocked and Americans can't trade with them.

  • 2025-00756 — Specially Designated Global Terrorist Designations of The Terrorgram Collective, Ciro Daniel Amorim Ferreira, Noah Licul, and Hendrik-Wahl Muller
    Type:Notice
    Citation:90 FR 3987
    Reading Time:about a minute or two

    The U.S. Secretary of State, using authority from Executive Order 13224, has classified a group called The Terrorgram Collective as a foreign terrorist entity. This decision applies because the group has engaged in activities posing significant risks of terrorism against the United States. Furthermore, the Secretary has identified three individuals—Ciro Daniel Amorim Ferreira, Noah Licul, and Hendrik-Wahl Muller—as leaders of this group. The order includes measures to block the group's property and interests in the U.S. without prior notice to those potentially affected, to prevent the immediate transfer of assets.

    Simple Explanation

    The government has labeled a group called The Terrorgram Collective as really bad people who might try to hurt others, and they're saying three leaders, Ciro, Noah, and Hendrik, are in charge of this group. They're making sure that anything these people own in the U.S. is watched very carefully so they can't do anything sneaky with it.

  • 2025-02612 — Imposing Sanctions on the International Criminal Court
    Type:Presidential Document
    Citation:90 FR 9369
    Reading Time:about 11 minutes

    The Executive Order 14203, issued by former President Donald J. Trump, imposes sanctions on the International Criminal Court (ICC). The order is in response to what the U.S. government views as illegitimate actions by the ICC, including investigations and arrest warrants against U.S. and Israeli personnel, despite neither country recognizing ICC jurisdiction. As part of these sanctions, the order blocks property and assets and restricts entry into the U.S. for ICC officials and their families when deemed a threat to U.S. interests. It declares a national emergency to address these issues and mandates further actions and reporting by relevant U.S. departments.

    Simple Explanation

    In 2025, the President decided that some people from a special court called the International Criminal Court (ICC) can't come to the U.S. or use their things here because they were trying to investigate people the U.S. doesn't think they should. This decision makes rules about how and when these people can be stopped, but it's not clear how it all works or who exactly might be affected.
