If any such interference is found, the EO allows for sanctions to be imposed on the assets of anyone found to have to have directly or indirectly engaged in, sponsored, concealed, or otherwise been complicit in foreign interference, aided or assisted them, or property etc owned or controlled by them. It also allows for other sanctions, such as blocking and prohibiting all transactions in a person’s property and interests in property subject to US jurisdiction, export licence restrictions and prohibitions on US financial institutions making loans or providing credit.
