Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev has said new sanctions imposed by the US are tantamount to declaring a "full-scale trade war" against Moscow.
He said the measures, signed by Donald Trump, demonstrated the complete impotence of the US president, who he said had been humiliated by Congress.
The law aims to punish Russia for its alleged meddling in the 2016 US elections and its actions in Ukraine.
Mr Trump accused Congress of overreach on the legislation.
In signing the Countering America's Adversaries Through Sanctions Act on Wednesday, he attached a statement calling the measure "deeply flawed".
The legislation limits the amount of money Americans can invest in Russian energy projects, and makes it more difficult for US companies to do business with Russia.
It also imposes sanctions on Iran and North Korea.
Iran said the new sanctions violated the nuclear deal and it would respond in an "appropriate and proportional" manner, reports the semi-official Isna news agency.
North Korea has so far made no public comments on the US move.
Writing on his Facebook page on Wednesday, Mr Medvedev said the sanctions package "ends hopes for improving our relations with the new US administration.
"The sanctions regime has been codified and will remain in effect for decades unless a miracle happens."

New history has been written in Brazil's football and stadium stadium who is currently playing for Barcelona's Spanish Barcelona Neymar on August 3, 2017, which has set a historical record for a 199 million pound registration that is more than Tsh 580 billion. The Paris Saint Germain Club has set a world record by registering Neymar for a five-year contract but a great deal that the registrar has never signed up with any player, which is twice as legally signed by Gareth Bale, Pogba and Cristiano Ronaldo. Neymar's transfer record is expected to last for a long time, Neymar now joining his colleagues Dani Alves and Lucas Moura who serve PSG. "PSG have had plans that have made me feel like I have been playing four seasons in Europe now I think this is the right time to get a new challenge, from today I will make everything possible to help my teammates and teams" >>> Neymar
Zuma in the tune again, the parliament decided its fate MPs in South Africa today expect a secret vote to decide on the issue of uncertainties by President Jacob Zuma. Baleka Mbete, a member of the parliament, has reached the decision after the opposition parties filed a case in court seeking a secret vote against the president of the country's lack of faith. In addition, the MPs believe that if a secret vote is being made, then the African National Congress (ANC) members who oppose Zuma will have the right to vote against the president. The ANC party, which ruled in South Africa since the end of the apartheid regime in 1994, has a large number of MPs in the country's parliament. However, this is a recent attempt to get rid of President Zuma and it happens immediately after dismissing a prime minister of finance by many MPs, Pravin Gordhan and other ministers in his cabinet change in March
