SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant 

to Section 7503(a)(1)(A) of PEESA, as 

amended, the Secretary of State, in 

consultation with the Secretary of the 

Treasury, shall submit every 90 days a 

report to the appropriate congressional 

committees that identifies vessels that 

engaged in pipe-laying or pipe-laying 

activities at depths of 100 feet or more

the Nord Stream 2 pipeline project, the 

Turkstream pipeline project, or any 

project that is a successor to either such

7503(a)(1)(B) of PEESA, as amended, the 

Secretary of State, in consultation with 

the Secretary of the Treasury, shall also 

include in the report foreign persons 

that the Secretary of State, in

project. Pursuant to Section 7503(c) of 

PEESA, as delegated, the Secretary of 

the Treasury, in consultation with the 

Secretary of State, shall exercise all 

powers granted to the President by the 

International Emergency Economic 

Powers Act to the extent necessary to 

block and prohibit all transactions in all 

property and interests in property of any 

person identified under subsection 

(a)(1)(B) of PEESA if such property and 

interests in property are in the United 

States, come within the United States, 

or are or come within the possession or 

control of a United States person. 

Pursuant to Section 7503(f) of PEESA, as 

delegated, the Secretary of State, in 

consultation with the Secretary of the 

Treasury, may waive application of 

sanctions under PEESA if the Secretary 

of State determines that the waiver is in 

the national interests of the United 

States and submits to the appropriate 

congressional committees a report on 

the waiver and the reasons for the 

waiver. Pursuant to E.O. 13049, with 

respect to any foreign person identified 

by the Secretary of State, in consultation 

with the Secretary of the Treasury, in a

section 7503(a)(1)(B) of PEESA, all

On May 19, 2021 The Secretary of 

State determined, pursuant to Section 

7503(a)(1)(B)(ii) of PEESA, as amended, 

that Nord Stream 2 AG and Matthias 

Warnig had knowingly, on or after 

January 1, 2021, facilitated deceptive or 

structured transactions to provide the 

pipe-laying vessel FORTUNA for the 

construction of the Nord Stream 2 

pipeline project. On May 19, 2021, 

pursuant to section 7503(f) of PEESA, as 

amended, the Secretary of State 

determined that it was in the national 

interest of the United States to waive the 

application of sanctions on Nord Stream 

2 AG, Matthias Warnig, and Nord 

Stream 2 AG corporate officers and 

submitted a report on the waivers and 

the reason for the waivers to the 

appropriate congressional committees. 

On February 23, 2022, the Secretary 

determined that the waiver of sanctions 

on Nord Stream 2 AG, Matthias Warnig, 

and Nord Stream 2 AG corporate 

officers is no longer in the national 

interest of the United States and 

accordingly terminated the waivers. 

Therefore, on February 23, 2022, Nord 

Stream 2 AG and Matthias Warnig were 

added to the Specially Designated 

Nationals and Blocked Persons List 

(SDN List) pursuant to PEESA and E.O. 

13049. All property and interests in 

property of these persons that is subject 

to U.S. jurisdiction are blocked.
