Putin signs law banning issuance of licenses to foreign users of mineral resources

"Putin signed a law prohibiting the issuance of licenses for the development of mineral
resources to foreign companies. The document was published on the official portal of legal information.
According to the law, only legal entities established in accordance with the law of the Russian Federation, as well as individual entrepreneurs, who are citizens of Russia, can be users of national mineral resources. To continue working in Russia, foreign companies will have to create legal entities in the Russian Federation and transfer the rights to use subsoil plots to them. Valid licenses for the right to use subsoil held by foreigners will be transferred to Russian entities or returned to the subsoil fund." Tass
