U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY
MEDIA ADVISORY: Deputy Secretary of the Treasury Wally
Adeyemo to Travel to Europe
November 3, 2022

WASHINGTON – Deputy Secretary of the Treasury Wally Adeyemo will travel to Paris, France,
London, United Kingdom, and Brussels, Belgium from November 7th to 9th to continue close
coordination with allies on sanctions against Russia for its brutal war against Ukraine. In
meetings with government counterparts, he will follow up on last month’s convening of
countries imposing Russia sanctions and export controls to discuss redoubled efforts to deny
Putin the revenue and military equipment he needs to further his illegal war. Deputy Secretary
Adeyemo will also discuss maintaining strong support for the Ukrainian government and people
through direct economic assistance, as well as close coordination on implementing a price cap
on Russian oil that will facilitate the flow of Russian oil onto global markets at lower prices and
cut into Putin’s main source of revenue.
In Paris and London, Deputy Secretary Adeyemo will meet with private sector executives to hear
their perspectives on sanctions evasion and enforcement, as well as the global spillover effects
of Putin’s war on higher energy prices and exacerbated food insecurity.
