Putin critic Navalny assists Canada in latest list of Russian sanctions, Trudeau says
Global News
Alexei Navalny, who has been a throne in the Russian’s president side for years, has called on Russians to stage daily protests against Moscow's invasion of Ukraine.
Canada is sanctioning 10 more individuals in response to Russia’s war on Ukraine on the advice of President Vladimir Putin’s top critic, Alexei Navalny.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced the new sanctions in the United Kingdom alongside British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and Netherlands Prime Minister Mark Rutte.
The 10 individuals are “complicit in this unjustified invasion,” Trudeau said. Their identities were not immediately revealed.
“This includes former and current senior government officials, oligarchs and supporters of Russian leadership,” he said. “The names of these individuals come from a list compiled by jailed opposition leader Alexei Navalny.”
Trudeau was in the United Kingdom Monday to meet with Johnson and Rutte to kick off his week in Europe where he will discuss Russia’s war in Ukraine with Canada’s allies.
Navalny, 45, has been in jail since 2021 after returning from Germany earlier that year where he underwent months of treatment to recover from being poisoned with a rare nerve agent in Siberia in August 2020.
