No Russian Tunnel to Crimea Act
This bill imposes U.S. sanctions on foreign individuals or entities that build, maintain, or repair tunnels or bridges connecting Russia to Crimea. It requires blocking their U.S. assets and banning visas for those involved, with exceptions for humanitarian aid, national security activities, and international obligations. The bill targets infrastructure supporting Russia’s control over Crimea, which the U.S. considers illegally occupied Ukrainian territory following Russia’s 2014 annexation and 2022 invasion of Ukraine.
