New sanctions by Canada, Russia affect hundreds of targets

Canada announced new sanctions targeting more than 162 individuals, entities, and vessels connected to Russia's defense industry, energy revenues, and shadow fleet. In a tit-for-tat move, Russia published a list of 103 Canadian nationals, including parliament members and top officials, barred from its territory. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney stated the goal is to pressure Russia into negotiating a just peace for Ukraine. Russia criticized the Carney administration for continuing Justin Trudeau's policy of supporting 'neo-Nazi authorities in Kiev.'
