April 14, 2026 — U.S. President Donald Trump has extended a ban on several products produced by the Russian Federation, including a ban on seafood harvested or produced by Russian-flagged vessels.
In a post to the Federal Register, Donald Trump signed a continuation of the National Emergency that was initially declared under the administration of former U.S. President Joe Biden in 2022. That order was then expanded under U.S. Executive Order 14068, which added any seafood harvested in Russian waters or by a Russian-flagged vessel, even if that product was transformed in a third country.
