祝贺德恒纽约陈小敏律师团队和德恒北京陈效律师团队成功帮助在中国科创版上市的某新能源制造业公司在美国诉讼中和解。
Congratulations to the DeHeng New York team led by Attorney Chen Xiaomin and the DeHeng Beijing team led by Attorney Chen Xiao for successfully assisting a new energy manufacturing company listed on the STAR Market in China in reaching a settlement in a U.S. lawsuit.

荣幸地宣布,德恒纽约与北京团队代表第三方被告成功解决了一起产品责任案件。经过八个月的努力,我们在证据发现阶段前达成了调解和解,从而为客户显著减少了诉讼成本,这标志着一项重要的进展。

The DeHeng New York and Beijing teams, representing a third-party defendant, are pleased to announce the successful resolution of a product liability case. After eight months of diligent effort, we reached a settlement before the discovery phase, significantly reducing litigation costs for our client, marking an important milestone.

 

尽管原告要求的赔偿金额远高于最终和解金额,但作为第三方被告,客户最终支付的金额仅是原告初始要求的一小部分。尽管对方并未使用威胁性言辞,但其持续要求高额赔偿金使谈判一度陷入僵局。然而,凭借团队的持续努力和专业知识,我们最终达成了一项令各方满意的解决方案。

Although the plaintiff's initial demand far exceeded the final settlement amount, our client, as a third-party defendant, ultimately paid only a fraction of the original demand. Despite the plaintiff's persistent demands for a high settlement, which led to stalled negotiations, our team's continuous efforts and expertise resulted in a mutually satisfactory resolution.

 

从接受委托到最终达成调解和解,德恒纽约和北京的律师团队展现出了专业精神。我们精心处理每一个细节,提交答复,管理文件请求,处理发现要求,并进行多次更新和会议。这次合作体现了跨国法律服务的优势,确保了每一个环节都得到了充分的关注,从而确保了案件的顺利解决。

From the moment we were retained to the final settlement, the DeHeng New York and Beijing teams demonstrated professionalism. We meticulously handled every detail, from filing responses and managing document requests to handling discovery demands and conducting numerous updates and meetings. This cooperation highlighted the advantages of cross-border legal services, ensuring that every aspect of the case received thorough attention, leading to a successful resolution.

 

这一重要进展证明了我们德恒团队在应对案件复杂性方面的承诺和能力。客户对调解结果表示满意,并赞扬了德恒纽约和北京律师团队的专业精神和所取得的成果。这一成功案例不仅展示了德恒中美律师团队在国际法律事务中的优势,也为未来跨国法律合作提供了有益的经验。

This significant achievement underscores our DeHeng team’s commitment and ability to handle complex cases. The client expressed satisfaction with the settlement outcome and praised the DeHeng New York and Beijing teams for their professionalism and the results achieved. This successful case not only showcases the strengths of the DeHeng China-U.S. legal teams in international legal matters but also provides valuable experience for future cross-border legal cooperation.

DraftKings因法律问题停止Non-Fungible Token(“NFT”)市场

DraftKings Discontinues NFT (non-fungible token) Marketplace Amid Legal Concerns

On July 30, 2024, DraftKings announced its decision to discontinue its NFT Marketplace. The company cited “recent legal considerations” as the reason for this move. This decision follows a recent ruling by a federal district court in Massachusetts, which refused to dismiss a proposed class action lawsuit against DraftKings. The suit claimed that the NFTs sold on DraftKings' Marketplace were unregistered securities.

The legal background centers on the Supreme Court's longstanding Howey decision, which defines a contract as an investment contract and thus a security if it involves an 1) investment of money, 2) in a common enterprise, 3) with an expectation of profits derived 4) solely from the efforts of others, such as a promoter or third party. In this case, DraftKings argued that their NFTs were similar to baseball or Pokémon cards and not securities. However, the judge disagreed. There was no dispute regarding the first Howey factor, the investment of money. For the second factor, "common enterprise," the court found sufficient allegations of asset pooling, as revenue from NFT sales was reinvested into DraftKings' business. The third factor, an expectation of profit, was supported by DraftKings' statements on the "guaranteed scarcity" of certain NFTs, which communicated to potential buyers that these NFTs were a unique investment opportunity, likely to appreciate in value. This marketing approach directly contributes to the expectation that purchasers are not just buying digital items for enjoyment but are also making an investment intended to yield financial returns. Lastly, the court held that the value of the NFTs was plausibly dependent on the success of the DraftKings Marketplace, satisfying the fourth Howey factor.

Cryptocurrency trading has been receiving greater attention from US regulators. In 2023, the SEC brought approximately $3 billion worth of action related to cryptocurrency trading, showing a 53% year-over-year increase involving more than $280 million in settlement. Further, the SEC has intensified its focus on major crypto exchanges, such as Coinbase and Binance. In 2023, Coinbase was charged with operating as an unregulated national securities exchange and failing to register its crypto asset staking program. Binance faced allegations of secretly allowing high-value U.S. customers to trade on its platform, commingling customer assets, and misleading investors.

SEC Chair Gary Gensler has asserted that major crypto exchanges are "likely trading securities” and need to register with the SEC, emphasizing that new technologies must comply with existing laws. He has also called for increased enforcement of stablecoins and other crypto tokens. In 2022, the SEC expanded its Cyber Unit, renaming it the Crypto Assets and Cyber Unit, and increased its size by 66% to bolster crypto enforcement efforts. Gensler, a known crypto-skeptic, has highlighted the prevalence of fraud and manipulation in the crypto field, particularly following the 2024 launch of spot bitcoin ETFs.

Shifting its attention from individual tokens to trading platforms, the SEC has made the examination of the offer, sale, and trading of crypto assets a top priority for 2024. The Howey Test is central to the SEC’s arguments. The agency asserts that crypto lending and staking products are unregistered securities.

The SEC collaborates with various partners, including the Department of Justice and international authorities, to enforce regulations. The IRS has increased efforts to crack down on tax evasion within the crypto industry, while the Treasury Department targets privacy coins and stablecoins that could pose financial risks. The ongoing legal battles and regulatory efforts highlight the SEC’s determination to define and enforce securities laws within the rapidly evolving crypto industry.

The strict regulation of cryptocurrency trading platforms and products in the US has global implications, particularly for countries like China that take a hard stance on cryptocurrencies. The enforcement actions and related rulings by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) against unregistered securities reinforce the global trend of regulating cryptocurrencies as securities. China has already implemented stringent measures to crack down on cryptocurrency trading and mining. The legal developments in the US may further prompt China to strengthen its existing regulatory framework.

Specifically, if US courts continue to classify cryptocurrencies and related products as securities and require them to comply with securities laws, China may adopt similar legal definitions and enforcement models, further tightening its regulation of domestic cryptocurrency activities. Additionally, the US crackdown on major cryptocurrency exchanges like Coinbase and Binance may alert China to closely monitor domestic and international cryptocurrency trading platforms to prevent them from circumventing Chinese regulations through cross-border operations.

Overall, these legal actions in the US not only reinforce the global consensus on stringent cryptocurrency regulation but also may drive China to implement even stricter measures in this sector to maintain financial stability and mitigate financial risks.

 


2024年7月30日,DraftKings宣布决定停止其NFT市场。公司将此举归因于对“近期相关法律法规的重新考量”。这一决定紧随马萨诸塞州联邦地区法院的一项裁决,该裁决拒绝驳回对DraftKings提起的拟议集体诉讼。诉讼声称DraftKings市场上销售的NFT是未注册的证券。

DraftKings是一家总部位于美国的公司,专门提供每日幻想体育(DFS)和体育博彩服务。成立于2012年,DraftKings允许用户通过其平台参加基于各种体育比赛(如橄榄球、棒球、篮球和足球等)的幻想体育比赛。用户可以创建自己的虚拟球队,根据现实世界运动员在比赛中的表现获得积分,并与其他用户竞争赢取奖品。近年来,DraftKings也扩展了其业务,包括在线体育博彩和iGaming(在线赌场游戏)。该公司在多个州获得了合法体育博彩的许可,并且其平台可以通过移动应用程序和网站访问。DraftKings因其创新的幻想体育比赛和合法的体育博彩服务而在体育爱好者中广受欢迎。截至2024年8月,DraftKings的市值约为178亿美元。

Draftking案的法律背景围绕最高法院长期以来的Howey判决展开,该判决定义了投资合同,并将其视为证券,如果它涉及1)资金的投入;2) 一个共同主体;3) 有利润回报的预期;4) 主要依靠于第三方的努力(例如推广者)。在本案中,DraftKings辩称其NFT类似于棒球卡或神奇宝贝卡(日本动漫),而不是证券。然而,法官不同意这一观点。对于Howey规则的第一个因素——资金投资,是没有争议的。对于第二个因素“一个共同的主体”,法院发现了有资产汇集的现象,因为NFT销售的收入被重新投资到DraftKings的业务中。第三个因素,即预期利润,由于DraftKings对某些NFT“保证稀缺性”的声明,这向潜在买家传达了这些NFT是一种独特的投资机会,可能会升值。这种营销方法直接导致购买者不仅购买数字物品以供娱乐,而且还进行投资以期获得利润回报。最后,法院认为这些NFT的价值是会依赖于DraftKings市场表现的成功与否,因此满足了Howey的第四个因素。

加密货币交易正受到美国监管机构的更多关注。2023年,美国证券交易委员会(“SEC”)对与加密货币交易相关的行为提起了约30亿美元的诉讼,相比去年增长了53%,涉及超过2.8亿美元的和解金额。此外,SEC加大了对主要加密交易所的关注,如Coinbase和Binance。2023年,Coinbase被指控作为未注册的全国证券交易所运营,并未能注册其加密资产质押计划。Binance则面临指控,称其秘密允许高价值的美国客户在其平台上进行交易,混合客户资产并误导投资者。

SEC主席Gary Gensler声称,主要的加密货币交易平台的行为与证券交易非常相似,因此应受到SEC的监管,并强调新兴技术必须遵守现有法律。他呼吁加强对稳定币和其他加密代币的执法力度。2022年,SEC将其网络部门扩展并更名为加密资产和网络部门,规模增加了66%,以加强对加密货币的监管。Gensler一直对加密货币持怀疑态度,特别是在2024年推出现货比特币ETF后,他强调了加密领域中的欺诈和操纵问题。

SEC已将2024年的首要任务定为审查加密资产的发行、销售和交易,重点从单个代币转向交易平台。Howey Test是SEC论点的核心,SEC认为加密贷款和质押产品是未注册的证券。为执行这些法规,SEC与司法部和国际当局等各种合作伙伴合作,IRS也加强了打击加密行业逃税的努力,而财政部则针对可能带来金融风险的隐私币和稳定币采取行动。持续的法律斗争和监管努力突显了SEC在快速发展的加密行业中定义和执行证券法的决心。

美国对加密货币交易平台和产品的严格监管具有全球性的影响,特别是在中国等对加密货币持强硬立场的国家。SEC针对未注册证券的执法行动和相关判决,强化了全球对加密货币作为证券进行监管的趋势。中国已经对加密货币交易和采矿采取了严厉打击措施,美国的法律进展可能会进一步促使中国加强其现有的监管框架。

具体而言,如果美国法院继续认定加密货币及其相关产品为证券,并要求其遵守证券法,那么中国可能会参考这种法律定义和执法模式,进一步严格监管国内的加密货币活动。此外,美国对主要加密货币交易所的打击,如Coinbase和Binance,可能促使中国更加警惕国内外加密货币交易平台,防止其通过跨国业务规避中国的法律监管。

总体而言,美国的这些法律行动不仅巩固了全球对加密货币严厉监管的共识,也可能推动中国在这一领域采取更严格的监管措施,以维护金融稳定和防范金融风险。

FTC关于竞业禁止条款的最终规则将于2024年9月4日生效
FTC Final Rule on Non-Compete Clauses to Take Effect September 4, 2024


The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has announced that its final rule on non-compete clauses will take effect on September 4, 2024, marking a significant shift in the landscape of employment agreements. This new regulation prohibits employers from including non-compete clauses in contracts signed after this date, classifying such clauses as an unfair method of competition and rendering them unenforceable.
The rule aims to enhance worker mobility and reduce restrictions that can hinder career advancement and economic competition. From September 4, 2024, forward, any non-compete agreement between an employer and a worker will be considered void, significantly altering how businesses protect proprietary information and retain talent.
However, there is an important exception to this sweeping change. The rule allows existing non-compete agreements to remain in force for "senior executives" who receive annual compensation exceeding $151,164 and hold policy-making positions. This category includes chief executive officers, presidents, and other top executives with policy-making authority across an entire business entity. Notably, other C-suite officers without organization-wide policy-making authority do not fall under this definition and will be subject to the new rule.
For all other workers, any non-compete agreements that predate the rule will become unenforceable starting September 4, 2024. This aspect of the rule is expected to affect a wide range of industries and professions, leveling the playing field for employees across the board.
To ensure compliance, the FTC has instituted a notice requirement for employers. Employers must notify current workers under non-compete agreements that these agreements will be void after the effective date.
This rule represents a landmark development in employment law, with far-reaching implications for both employers and employees. The FTC’s decision underscores a commitment to promoting fair competition and protecting workers' rights, signaling a new era of workforce mobility and corporate accountability.


联邦贸易委员会(FTC)宣布,其关于竞业禁止条款的最终规则将于2024年9月4日生效,这标志着雇佣协议领域的重大变革。根据这一新法规,雇主在此日期之后签署的合同中不得包含竞业禁止条款,否则将被视为不公平竞争方式,从而不可执行。
这一规则旨在增强员工流动性,减少可能阻碍职业发展和经济竞争的限制。从2024年9月4日起,任何雇主与员工之间的竞业禁止协议将被视为无效,显著改变企业保护专有信息和保留人才的方式。
然而,这一广泛变化中有一个重要例外。规则允许现有的竞业禁止协议继续对“高级管理人员”生效,这些人员的年薪超过151,164美元,并且担任全公司范围内政策制定职位。这一类包括首席执行官、总裁及其他在整个业务实体内具有全公司内政策制定权的高管。值得注意的是,其他没有全公司范围内政策制定权的高管不包括在这一定义中,例如分公司或者子公司的高管。对于其他所有员工,任何在规则生效前签订的竞业禁止协议将于2024年9月4日起失效。这一规则的这一方面预计将影响广泛的行业和职业,为所有员工创造更公平的竞争环境。
为了确保合规,FTC制定了雇主通知要求。雇主必须通知当前受竞业禁止协议约束的员工,这些协议将在生效日期后无效。这一规则代表了雇佣法领域的里程碑发展,对雇主和员工都有深远影响。FTC的决定凸显了促进公平竞争和保护员工权利的承诺,预示着一个员工流动性和企业责任的新纪元。







 

U.S. DOS Updated the list of Sanctions on Entities and Individuals Involved with Russia 

美国国务院及美国财政部更新对涉俄实体和个人的制裁清单 

Jordan Liu刘泽辉 

July 11, 2024 

BACKGROUND 

On June 12, 2024, the United States announced its new actions to wear down Russia’s capability to hold its warring effort against Ukraine, sanctioning more than 300 individuals and entities, right before G7 leaders met in Italy on June 13-15. Among this action, the U.S. Department of State (DOS) is imposing more than 100 new sanctions against related individuals and entities. These actions were implemented not only to 1) solve sanction evasions and backfilling, but also to 2) target entities in multiple third countries, including the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). DOS also aimed to constrain Russia’s future energy revenues, weaken Russia’s defense industrial base, as well as designate authorities responsible for the humanitarian concerns over Ukrainian children. All targets are being designated pursuant to Executive Order 14024 as amended by Executive Order 14114, which authorizes sanctions with respect to specified foreign activities of the Government of the Russian Federation.  

On the same date, the U.S. Department of the Treasury (DOT)’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) also acted in accordance with DOS’s action and updated their Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons (SDN) List. OFAC’s actions targeted at the risk of secondary sanctions for foreign financial institutions that deal with Russia’s war economy and aimed to restrict the ability of the Russian military-industrial base to take advantage of certain U.S. software and information technology (IT) services. This determination is made pursuant to Executive Orders 14071 and 14024.  

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE SANCTIONS 

One of the main objectives of this sanction is to disrupt sanction evasion and backfilling efforts, where Russia procures technology and equipment from third countries to support its war effort. To do that, this objective targets producers, exporters, and importers of items critical to Russia’s military-industrial base. Those items include items on the Common High Priority List (CHPL) identified by the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS). CHPL is ranked into four tiers, with the most concerning listed as Tier 1, and the least concerning listed as Tier 4. Russia’s efforts to procure high-priority items create significant risks that persons both inside the US and globally may become entangled in violations of U.S. export controls and sanctions laws. Foreign parties engaged in activity contrary to U.S. foreign policy and national security interests may also be added to BIS’s Entity List or OFAC’s Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons (SDN) List. 

   

Tiers and Descriptions:

  • Tier 1

    • Items of the highest concern due to their critical role in the production of advanced Russian precision-guided weapons systems, Russia’s lack of domestic production, and limited global manufacturers. 

 

  • Tier 2 

    • Additional electronics items for which Russia may have some domestic production capability but a preference to source from the United States and its partners and allies. 

 

  • Tier 3.A 

    • Further electronic components used in Russian weapons systems, with a broader range of suppliers. 

 

  • Tier 3.B 

    • Mechanical and other components utilized in Russian weapons systems. 

 

  • Tier 4.A 

    • Manufacturing, production, and quality testing equipment for electric components, circuit boards, and modules. 

 

  • Tier 4.B 

    • Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC) machine tools and components. 

It is alleged that entities in the PRC, the UAE, and other countries continue to sell these items and other key dual-use goods listed on CHPL to Russia. DOS is “particularly concerned by the scale and breadth of dual-use goods exports from the PRC.” DOS alleges that the PRC is filling the critical gaps in Russia’s defense production cycle to produce weapons. In the June 12 notice released by DOS, seven PRC-based entities were alleged to have supported Russia’s war effort (Sanctioned individuals and entities are listed at the end of this section and are numbered for the convenience of the readers of this newsletter). DOS marked entity 1 to operate or have operated in the defense and related material sector of the Russian Federation economy. Entities 2-5 on this list are marked by DOS for operating or having operated in the technology sector of the Russian Federation economy. Entity 6 is being designated for operating or having operated in the aerospace sector of the Russian Federation economy. Entity 7 is being designated for operating or having operated in the manufacturing sector of the Russian Federation economy.  

DOS identifies further objectives other than sanction evasion and backfilling efforts, including degrading Russia’s future energy production and export capacity. Similar to the previous objective, DOS also identified entities that they would take action against. Among the list of this objective is Entity 8, another PRC entity. DOS stated that this entity has materially assisted, sponsored, or provided financial, material, or technological support for, or goods or services to or in support of LLC ARCTIC LNG 2, a person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to E.O. 14024.  

Here are the names of the entities and a brief description of the allegation that DOS made. (Please be advised that the information contained in this list and the factual allegations presented are made and published by the U.S. Department of State. They do not reflect the beliefs or opinions of the author or DeHeng Chen LLC). 

 

  1. POLY TECHNOLOGIES INCORPORATED (PTI) 

a PRC defense company and state-owned enterprise that has shipped dual-use and defense-related equipment to numerous U.S.-designated Russian defense sector entities since February 2022.

ASIALINK sent at least 1,350 shipments of CHPL items to LLC MDIKAM EK, 800 shipments of CHPL items to LLC SPETSVOLTAZH, and 400 shipments of CHPL items to PETERSBURG INTELLIGENT TRANSPORT LOGISTICS. Products shipped include electronic integrated circuits and other controlled electronic components. 

 

  5. 3NOD DIGITAL HONG KONG LIMITED 

a Hong Kong-based company involved in the supply of over $1 million worth of CHPL to Russian companies, including the U.S.-designated, Russia-based OBLTRANSTERMINAL. 

  6. MILE HAO XIANG TECHNOLOGY CO LTD 

 a PRC-based company involved in the supply of components to Russian customers. 

 

  7. GUANGDONG PRATIC CNC TECHNOLOGY CO LTD 

a PRC-based company involved in the supply of over $1.9 million CHPL items to Russian customers, including the U.S.-designated, Russia-based UMAC LLC. UMAC LLC has a public history of supplying machine tools - both domestic and foreign-produced - to the Russian military-industrial base, and its past customers include U.S.-designated, Russia-based battle tank manufacturer JSC RESEARCH AND PRODUCTION CORPORATION URALVAGONZAVOD NAMED AFTER F.E. DZERZHINSKY. 

  8. PENGLAI JUTAL OFFSHORE ENGINEERING HEAVY INDUSTRIES CO 

a PRC-based shipyard operator which has constructed and shipped critical natural gas liquefaction technology, aboard previously blocked vessels AUDAX, PUGNAX, and HUNTER STAR, to LLC ARCTIC LNG 

 

Other than the PRC, there are also Belarus-based networks alleged by DOS to be supporting the Russian Military. One Russian state-owned enterprise and 4 Belarusian companies were covered on this list, as well as 5 personnel related to these entities. Beyond Belarus and the PRC, 19 more entities from other countries, including the UAE, Moldova, Türkiye, Kyrgyzstan, and Singapore, are also listed. Beyond this, one port operator that provided services to blocked Russian Vessels is also identified. 

Beyond these two objectives, further objectives disclosed in this notice include targeting Russia’s metals and mining industry, maintaining the pressure on State Atomic Energy Corporation Rosatom (Rosatom), constraining Russia’s military-industrial base, and promoting accountability for certain questionable entities and individual actors. In these remaining objectives, no more PRC entities were named. 

 

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF TREASURY SANCTIONS 

On Dec. 22, 2023, President Biden expanded the tools available for DOT to impose sanctions on foreign financial institutions for aiding Russia’s military-industrial base, in order to sabotage and compromise Russia’s war machine. The new actions posed by DOT broadened the definition of Russia’s military-industrial base to include all persons blocked pursuant to Executive Order 14024. This means that foreign financial institutions risk being sanctioned for conducting or facilitating significant transactions, or providing any services, involving any person blocked pursuant to E.O. 14024. In order to clarify the risk for those foreign financial institutions faced by such aforementioned transactions, OFAC updated the SDN list for five sanctioned Russian financial institutions.  

Further, DOS worked with the U.S. Department of Commerce, and in line with G7 efforts to disrupt the Russian military-industrial base’s reliance on foreign IT systems, the Treasury has taken steps to restrict the Russian military-industrial base’s access to certain software and IT-related services. To do that, the Treasury, in consultation with the Department of State, has issued a new determination under E.O. 14071, which prohibits the supply to any person in the Russian Federation of 1) IT consultancy and design services; and 2) IT support services and cloud-based services for enterprise management software and design and manufacturing software.  

In the current action, the sanction of DOT is also manifold. The main reasons include 1) sanction evasion, circumvention, and backfill; 2) disrupting Russia’s domestic war economy; 3) limiting Russia’s future revenue from liquified natural gas. 

Firstly, DOT claims that Russia relies on complex transactional supply chains to feed its war machine and enable the production of materials to sustain its war effort. DOT further claims that Russia tried to evade sanctions by using these networks and complicated schemes to move money and other valuable assets. In this sanction, DOT targets more than a dozen of these types of networks, pinpointing more than a dozen of these types of networks, and designating more than 90 individuals and entities across Russia, Belarus, the British Virgin Islands, Bulgaria, Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic, the PRC, Serbia, South Africa, Türkiye, and the United Arab Emirates. 

Several PRC-related individuals and entities were alleged to be involved in a few of those alleged transnational supply chain networks as shown in the table below. All of those individuals/entities were also added to the updated SDN, and the specific sanction reasons will be mentioned in the tables at the end of this section. Some individuals’ names are mentioned for the purpose of reference if they are related to sanctioned entities. 

​​​​​​​​​

​​

Second, DOT claims that Russia has transformed into a war economy in which companies across the Russian industry contribute to Russia’s war effort. This sanction by DOT reflects the complicated situation of the Russian war economy by targeting more than 100 entities that operate or have operated in the defense and related material, manufacturing, technology, transportation, or financial services sector of the Russian Federation economy. 

Third, driven by promises made by President Biden and G7 leaders to limit Russia’s future energy revenues and impede Russia’s development of future energy projects, DOT targets entities involved in three liquefied natural gas projects that Russia hopes to bring online in the future in the sanctions today, including the Obsky LNG, Arctic LNG 1, and Arctic LNG 3 projects. Not only this, but DOT’s sanction also includes designations of three entities involved in either construction of natural gas-related projects or manufacturing specialized equipment for LNG transportation, as well as identification of seven under-construction LNG vessels. 

Please see the several tables below for the sanctioned PRC-related individuals, entities, and entities that now have PRC addresses after changes to the SDN List.  (Please be advised that the information contained in this list and the factual allegations presented are made and published by the U.S. Department of the Treasury. They do not reflect the beliefs or opinions of the author or DeHeng Chen LLC. The Chinese version of the entities, if available, is provided by DOT.) 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CONSEQUENCE OF SANCTION 

The consequences of these sanction-related actions are manifold. As published by both DOS and DOT, for the designated persons described in this notice, their property and interests in property in the U.S. or in possession of U.S. persons are blocked and must be reported to the Department of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). All entities and individuals that either directly or indirectly have ownership of 50% or more by one or more blocked persons are also blocked. Beyond this, all transactions by U.S. persons or within (or transiting) the U.S. that involve any property or interest in property of designated or otherwise blocked persons are prohibited unless authorized by a general or specific license issued by OFAC or exempt. These prohibitions include the making of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services by, to, or for the benefit of any blocked person and the receipt of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services from any such person.

简概 

当地时间2024年6月12日,在七国集团(G7)领导人于6月13-15日在意大利举行会议之前,美国宣布了新一轮针对超过300个个人和实体的制裁,意图削弱俄罗斯对乌克兰的作战能力。此次制裁行动中,有超过100个相关个人和实体被美国国务院列入新一轮制裁清单。这些制裁旨在1)解决对制裁的规避以及回补问题,2)针对包括中国在内的多个第三国的实体美国国务院还意图限制俄罗斯未来的能源收入,削弱俄罗斯的国防工业基础,以及指定应对乌克兰儿童人道主义问题承担责任的当局。所有目标都是根据经第 14114 号行政命令修订的第 14024 号行政命令指定的,该行政命令授权对俄罗斯联邦政府的特定对外活动实施制裁。 

同日,美国财政部的外国资产控制办公室(OFAC)也根据DOS的行动采取了行动,更新了其特别指定国民和受阻人员(SDN)名单。OFAC的行动针对与俄罗斯战争经济有所往来的外国金融机构受到二级制裁的风险,旨在限制俄罗斯军工产业利用某些美国软件和信息技术 (IT) 服务的能力。 本决定是根据第 14071及14024 号行政命令制定的。

 

美国国务院的制裁 

此次制裁的主要目标之一是破坏俄罗斯通过第三国采购技术和设备来支持其战争努力的制裁规避和回补的努力。为此,此次制裁的目标是俄罗斯军事工业基础所需的重要物品的生产商、出口商和进口商。这些物品包括美国商务部工业与安全局(BIS)确定的“共同高优先级列表”(CHPL)上的物品。CHPL分为四个等级,其中最令美方担忧的列为一级,最不令美方担忧的列为四级。俄罗斯采购高优先级物品的努力使美国和全球人员都可能卷入违反美国出口管制和制裁法的风险。参与与美国对外政策和国家安全利益相悖活动的外国当事人也可能被列入BIS的实体清单或OFAC的SDN清单。 

 

优先级以及其说明: 

  • 第1级 

    • 由于其在俄罗斯先进的精确制导武器系统生产中的关键作用、俄罗斯国内生产的缺乏以及全球制造商的有限性,因此是最受令美方担忧的项目。 

  • 第 2 级 

    • 俄罗斯可能具有一定国内生产能力,但更倾向于从美国及其合作伙伴和盟国采购的其他电子产品。 

  • 第 3.A 级 

    • 俄罗斯武器系统中使用的由更广泛的供应商生产的更多电子元件。 

  • 第 3.B 级 

    • 俄罗斯武器系统中使用的机械部件和其他部件。 

  • 第 4.A 级 

    • 电气元件、电路板和模块的制造、生产和质量检测设备。

美国财政部的制裁 

2023年12月22日,拜登总统扩增了美国财政部对援助俄罗斯军工基础的外国金融机构实施制裁的手段以破坏和损害俄罗斯的战争机器。 美国财政部在本次制裁中扩大了对俄罗斯军工基础的定义,并将根据第 14024 号行政命令被封锁的所有个人或实体都包括在内。 这意味着外国金融机构在进行或协助涉及根据第 14024 号行政命令被封锁的任何人的重大交易或提供任何服务时,都有可能受到制裁。 为了明确外国金融机构因上述交易而面临的风险,OFAC更新了五家受制裁俄罗斯金融机构的 SDN 名单。  

此外,美国财政部与美国商务部合作,并根据七国集团(G7)为破坏俄罗斯军工基础对外国 IT 系统的依赖而做出的努力,美国财政部已采取措施限制俄罗斯军工基础获得某些软件和 IT 相关服务。 为此,美国财政部与美国国务院协商后,根据第14071号行政命令发布了一项新的决定,禁止向俄罗斯联邦的任何人提供 1) IT 咨询和设计服务;以及 2) 企业管理软件和设计制造软件的 IT 支持服务和基于云的服务。 

在本次制裁中, 美国财政部的制裁也是多方面的。 主要目标包括:1)制裁入侵、规避和回补;2)打击俄罗斯的国内战争经济;3)限制俄罗斯的未来液化天然气收入。 

首先,美国财政部认为,俄罗斯依靠复杂的跨国供应链来支持其战争机器,并使物资生产能够维持其作战能力。美国财政部进一步提出,在此类网络的协助下,俄罗斯还试图使用复杂的计划来转移资金,其他贵重资产来逃避制裁。美国财政部在此次制裁中针对十几个此类网络,在俄罗斯、白俄罗斯、英属维京群岛、保加利亚、哈萨克斯坦、吉尔吉斯共和国、中华人民共和国、塞尔维亚、南非、土耳其和阿拉伯联合酋长国(阿联酋)指定了90多个个人和实体。 

如下表所示,一些与中国有关的个人和实体被指控参与了其中几个被指控的跨国供应链网络。 所有这些个人/实体也被添加到更新的 SDN 清单中,具体的制裁原因将在本节末尾的表格中提及。 如果某些个人与受制裁实体有关,则提及这些个人的姓名以供参考。实体的中文名称翻译(如有)由美国财政部提供。 

第二,美国财政部称俄罗斯已经转变为战争经济,以至于俄罗斯各行各业的公司都为俄罗斯的作战能力做出了贡献。美国财政部的这一次制裁反映了俄罗斯国内战争经济的复杂格局,并针对了100多个在俄罗斯联邦经济的国防和相关物资、制造、技术、运输或金融服务方面运营或已经运营的实体。 

第三,在拜登总统和七国集团领导人承诺限制俄罗斯未来能源收入并阻碍俄罗斯未来能源项目发展的指导下,财政部本次制裁的目标是俄罗斯参与希望未来上线的三个液化天然气(LNG)项目的实体:Obsky LNG、北极液化天然气1和北极液化天然气3项目。本次美国财政部的制裁还包括指定三个参与建设天然气相关项目或制造液化天然气运输专用设备的实体,以及确定七艘正在建设中的液化天然气船。 

下表是被制裁的与中国有关的个人、实体,以及在 SDN 名单变更后现在拥有中国地址的实体。 (请注意,本清单中包含的信息和提出的事实指控是由美国财政部制定和公布的。 它们并不反映作者或德恒(纽约)律师事务所的立场或观点。 实体的中文名称翻译(如有)由 美国财政部提供)。
