"Biden Imposes Tough Sanctions on Russia in Response to Navalny's Death and Ukraine Conflict"
The United States Department of State is imposing sanctions on over 500 individuals and entities in Russia and globally in response to Russia's aggression against Ukraine, the death of opposition politician Aleksey Navalny, and its authoritarianism. The sanctions target those involved in Navalny's death, sanctions evasion, and bolstering Russia's future energy production. Additionally, visa restrictions are being imposed on Russian authorities involved in human rights abuses, and a business advisory is issued to assist companies in making informed decisions regarding the risks of conducting business in Russia. The sanctions also aim to disrupt Russia's procurement of technology and equipment critical to its defense-industrial base, including aviation and microelectronic components.
