U.S. Imports from Russia in January Nearly 5-Times as Great as Exports

The value of the products that the United States imported from Russia in January—before U.S sanctions were imposed on Russia after its February 24 invasion of Ukraine--was nearly five times as great as the value of the products that the United States exported to Russia during that month, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

In January, according to the official Census Bureau data, the United States imported $1,959,400,000 in products from Russia.

That same month, the United States exported only $396,800,000 in products to Russia.

The $1,959,400,000 in imports from Russia was 4.93 times as great as the $396,800,000 in exports to Russia.

As a result of the disparity between imports and exports, the United States ran a merchandise trade deficit of $1,562,500,000 with Russia in January...............

I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.
