Training for the protest was directed by an instructor cadre with links to Mikhail Sergeyevich Potepkin. OFAC designated Potepkin on July 15, 2020, for his role as Regional Director for M Invest, a designated company that served as cover for Kremlin-backed PMC Wagner forces operating in Sudan, and was responsible for developing plans for former Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir to suppress protestors. OFAC sanctioned Potepkin’s former employer, the Internet Research Agency, on September 30, 2019, for its efforts to influence the 2018 U.S. midterm elections.

E.O. 13661. On March 16, 2014, the President, invoking the authority of, inter alia, IEEPA, issued E.O. 13661. In E.O. 13661, the President expanded the scope of the national emergency declared in E.O. 13660, finding that the actions and policies of the Government of the Russian Federation with respect to Ukraine—including the recent deployment of Russian Federation military forces in the Crimea region of Ukraine—undermine democratic processes and institutions in Ukraine; threaten its peace, security, stability, sovereignty, and territorial integrity; and contribute to the misappropriation of its assets, and thereby constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States. Section 1(a) of E.O. 13661 blocks, with certain exceptions, all property and interests in property that are in the United States, that come within the United States, or that are or come within the possession or control of any United States person, of: (i) The persons listed in the Annex to E.O. 13661, and (ii) persons determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State to, among other things, be an official of the Government of the Russian Federation or operate in the arms or related materiel sector in the Russian Federation.
