Biden announces around 500 new sanctions against Russia. Hundreds of new measures against Moscow are now to be added.
The sanctions are aimed, among other things, at people connected to Navalny's imprisonment, the Russian financial sector and the defense industry. Biden said the measures “will ensure that Putin pays an even higher price for his aggression abroad and his repression at home” Putin badly miscalculated and the “brave Ukrainian people continue to fight and are determined to defend their freedom and their future,” said Biden.
