President Biden imposes new sanctions on Russia in response to...

election interference and cyber hacks!

The Biden administration targeted Russia with sweeping sanctions and diplomatic expulsions Thursday, punishing Moscow for its interference in the 2020 US election, its SolarWinds cyberattack and its ongoing occupation and "severe human rights abuses" in Crimea.

The announcement is one of a series of dramatic foreign policy steps that President Joe Biden has taken this week, along with the decision to withdraw all troops from Afghanistan and send an unofficial delegation to Taiwan to express support for its democracy and security, in what may signal a turn toward a tougher, more pragmatic global posture for the US.

The former rump administration would have NEVER done this to Russia !!
We finally have a President that will stand up to Russia..FINALLY!

US officials made it clear that while the President would prefer not to, he was poised to take further action if needed.

For its part, the Kremlin summoned the US ambassador to Russia to the foreign ministry for what it described as a "difficult" conversation and said its response to the US measures will come shortly.

The 10 Russian diplomats who are being expelled are based in Washington, DC, and New York, and will have 30 days to leave the country, a US official familiar with the plans explained.

Asked how the US chose the 10 diplomats who will be expelled, a senior administration official told reporters Thursday that those individuals "were acting with a manner inconsistent with their status in the US," and declined to provide further details.

Good. The US should continue surveilling the activities of foreign diplomats. They operate with more privileges than US citizens. Scary world, it is.
