‘Largely Symbolic’: Biden Administration Expected to Bar Russian Ships from U.S. PortsJoshua Caplan 2 Mar 2022
President Joe Biden’s administration is likely to prohibit Russian ships from entering United States ports — believed to be a “largely symbolic” decision — sources with knowledge of the situation told the Wall Street Journal.
The Journal reported Wednesday:
The move, which follows a similar ban in the U.K., would be largely symbolic. Russian commercial ships represent less than 1% of cargo volumes to the U.S., according to shipping and port officials. Russian firms own a large fleet of oil tankers but they usually aren’t Russian-flagged.
