Russia export controls and sanctions
The use of export controls and sanctions on Russia has surged since the country's invasion of Crimea in 2014, and especially its invasion of Ukraine in in February 2022.

The Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit reversed a Court of International Trade remand of the final results of the 2006-07 administrative review of the antidumping duty order on magnesium metal from the Russian Federation, and ordered CIT to reinstate the original final results. In its ruling, CAFC said CIT overstepped its authority by requiring the International Trade Administration to consider factual information that Russian magnesium and titanium manufacturer PSC VSMPA-Avisma submitted beyond the regulatory deadline. CAFC also said CIT misinterpreted the phrase “ordinary course of business” in the statute in requiring the ITA to use a methodology that also accounted for Avisma’s titanium production when allocating costs in the calculation of constructed value for Avisma’s magnesium sales. According to CAFC, the phrase refers to a normal time period, and does not dictate a specific cost accounting methodology.
