Bill Summary
To impose sanctions with respect to the provision of certain vessels for the construction of Russian energy export pipelines, and for other purposes. This bill directs the President to impose visa- and asset-blocking sanctions on any foreign person that knowingly provides pipe-laying vessels for constructing a Russian-origin energy export pipeline that makes landfall in Germany or Turkey. The President may waive the sanctions as to specific persons if it is in the U.S. national interest to do so and if the President notifies Congress of the decision.
AI Summary
This bill directs the President to impose sanctions on any foreign person that knowingly provides pipe-laying vessels for constructing a Russian-origin energy export pipeline that makes landfall in Germany or Turkey. The sanctions include blocking transactions and denying entry into the United States. The President may waive the sanctions if it is in the U.S. national interest and Congress is notified. The authority to impose sanctions would terminate when appropriate safeguards are in place to minimize Russia's ability to use the pipeline for political leverage or when 10 years have passed since the bill's enactment.
