Prime Minister Mark Carney says Canada will impose new sanctions against Russia as its war in Ukraine continues.
Carney made the announcement during a meeting at the G7 summit with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
The sanctions are targeting Russia’s shadow fleet, energy revenues, defence-industrial and disinformation actors.
The package will target 162 individuals, entities and vessels — all assets of the Russian war machine.
Last month, Carney announced Canada will contribute another $270 million to help Ukraine secure critical military capabilities in its defence against Russia’s full-scale invasion.
He made the announcement in Armenia, where he met with world leaders at the European Political Community summit, focused on strategic co-operation in politics, security and infrastructure.
