US Chemical Weapons Sanctions In Focus as Deadline Expires Ahead of Putin-Biden Summit

US-RUSSIA
  • Also worth noting today: US sanctions on Russia for the use of chemical weapons against Navalny are due to be imposed today as the deadline expires
  • However, the White House has the right to postpone this in lieu of the Putin-Biden Summit (16 June)
  • The imposition of sanctions could add a sour dynamic to negotiations which have faltered slightly in recent weeks after improving substantially in March-April on a de-escalation with the Ukraine.
