Canada slaps new sanctions on 10 notable Russians 'complicit' in the Ukraine invasion from a list provided by jailed Putin opposition leader

• Canada on Monday announced new sanctions on 10 notable Russian figures.
• At a press conference, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said the individuals are "complicit in this unjustified invasion" of Ukraine.

Canada on Monday announced new sanctions against 10 notable Russian individuals, accusing them of being "complicit in this unjustified invasion" of Ukraine, Reuters reported.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made the announcement at a press conference in London, adding that the list "includes former and current senior government officials, oligarchs, and supporters of the Russian leadership. The names of these individuals come from a list compiled by jailed opposition leader Alexey Navalny."

As CNN reported, Trudeau said the move will put "increased pressure" on Russian President Vladimir Putin's allies.

"This is, of course, in addition to all the other sanctions we've announced including a recent announcement on imposing massive tariffs on Russian and Belarusian imports," Trudeau added. "The work we're doing together is punishing Putin and his enablers where it hurts most, in particular by crippling their financial systems and sanctioning their central bank."

A spokesperson for the prime minister told Politico the list includes figures such as Dmitry Patrushev, Mikhail Murashko, Margarita Simonyan, and Pavel Krasheninnikov.

Since Russia invaded Ukraine last month, Canada and multiple other countries, including the US, UK, and European Union, have imposed sanctions against the country and its leaders. As Insider previously reported, Russia also published a list of "unfriendly countries"— which included Canada — responding to them denouncing the war.
