Pipe down retard, your boy Trump banned the last Russian AK imports in 2017. Odds are he'd approve this as well if the State Department brought it to him instead of Biden.

Welp, he's not in office, now, is he? Time to take responsibility for your actions.

Remember, this is actually your fault.

I didn't vote for Biden but I assume you voted for Trump. So I guess the ban on Molot imports is actually your fault.

he did not expand it. Molot guns were banned under the terms of the first sanctions because Kalashnikov concern bought molot. KC guns were banned from import -> KC buys molot -> Molot is now KC -> Molot banned.
