US Sentences Russian Citizen to 10 Years for Illegal Export of Technology
MOSCOW (Sputnik) — The US Treasury Department included Russian citizens Yusuf Arbash, the head of Hesco Engineering and Construction Ltd's office in Russia, and Imad Mtanyus Khuri to the Specially Designated Nationals' List of the US Office of Foreign Assets Control on Thursday. Nabil Tizini, a Syrian national and the financial manager at Hesco, was also added to the list.

"We are very disappointed with the way the US administration behaves on the bilateral track. Scarcely had the [US] secretary of state [John Kerry] paid the visit to Moscow, new decisions on sanctions were adopted. Under the US internal legislation, two Russian citizens, who interacted with partners in Syria on completely legal grounds, found themselves on the sanctions list," Ryabkov told RIA Novosti.

This move is not completely surprising but it devalues the US assurances about the course to mend bilateral ties, he added.
