Will Trump increase sanctions on Russia before August?
Rules
This market will resolve to "Yes"
if the United States officially imposes new sanctions
of any form against Russia between 2025-07-14
and 2025-07-31 16:00 UTC.
Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".
Sanctions could include measures like tariffs, trade
restrictions, financial penalties, diplomatic expulsions,
travel bans, restrictions on specific individuals, or any
other actions that are commonly recognized
as sanctions.
Sanctions against Russian citizens or entities which
do not directly target the Russian state or members
of the Russian government will not qualify.
The passage of an official act/executive order authorizing
sanctions on Russia within this market's timeframe
will count toward a Yes" resolution, regardless of
if/when the sanctions come into effect.
The primary resolution source will be official information
from the government of the United States, however
a consensus of credible reporting may be used.
