Navalny death: Canada announces new sanctions against Russia
Following suit with the U.S. and U.K., Canada slapped new sanctions on Russia on Friday. The announcement was made by Foreign Affairs Minster Mélanie Joly and comes after not just the death of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny, but on the eve of the second anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Navalny, a once-fierce critic of the Kremlin, died in an Arctic penal colony last Friday. He was serving a three-decade sentence that his allies have labelled as politically motivated. Joly unveiled additional sanctions against 153 entities, and ten individuals, including an aide to Russian President Vladimir Putin and senior officials at private and state-owned companies in Russia and Cyprus. Global’s Touria Izri has the details.
