The decision to block the Moscow Exchange, the National Settlement Depository and the National Clearing Center by Washington will not take effect on August 13. The United States, according to the Readovka telegram channel, decided to postpone the restrictions for two months.
The decision has already been officially confirmed by the US Treasury. The new deadline is October 12, 2024. Moreover, the department did not give any explanation for such a decision.
The US Treasury document also states that US citizens are still prohibited from any actions with Russian stocks.
Experts believe that by imposing sanctions against the Moscow Exchange, Washington first of all planned to hit the country's foreign exchange market. But, as often happens, there were exceptions, these are operations with oil, petroleum products, gas and energy carriers, that is, those operations that are beneficial to Americans. It is possible that Washington realized that such a large-scale blocking would hit the dollar and a number of third countries.
