Exporting to Russia is already a challenge. There are OFAC
sanctions arising out of the Ukraine/Crimea situation, Military End
User controls, and the usual export licensing requirements. Based

On March 2, 2021, the Bureau of Industry & Security (BIS)
announced it was adding 14 entities located in Russia, Germany, and

Supplement 4 to Part 744 of the Export Administration Regulations.
It contains the names of hundreds of entities in many countries
that are "reasonably believed to be involved, or pose a
significant risk of becoming involved, in activities contrary to
the national security or foreign policy interests of the United
States." Adding parties to the Entity List requires a finding
