Any foreign person found to be facilitating a transnational criminal cartel by providing material support or resources, as defined in section 2339A(b)(1) of title 18, United States Code, shall be subject to the sanctions described in subsection (b). The President may, in accordance with the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ( 50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq. ), block all transactions in all property and interests in property of a foreign person described in subsection
(a)if such property and interests in property are in the United States, come within the United States, or are or come within the possession or control of a United States person. A person that violates, attempts to violate, conspires to violate, or causes a violation of any prohibition imposed by the President pursuant to paragraph
(1)shall be subject to the penalties set forth in subsections
(b)and
(c)of section 206 of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ( 50 U.S.C. 1705 ) to the same extent as a person that commits an unlawful act described in subsection
