Biden administration will impose sanctions on more than 500 targets in response to Navalny death

On Friday, the Biden administration is set to implement a new set of sanctions targeting over 500 entities in response to the demise of opposition figure Alexey Navalny and on the eve of the two-year anniversary of Russia’s conflict in Ukraine, as confirmed by a Treasury official.

These sanctions represent the latest step taken by the administration to impose repercussions on Russia amid escalating tensions between the two nations.

During a statement on Tuesday, U.S. National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan described the upcoming measures as a “substantial package,” encompassing various aspects connected to the Russian defense industrial sector and revenue sources supporting the country’s “war machine.”

President Joe Biden had hinted at the sanctions on Thursday, attributing responsibility for Navalny’s death to Russian President Vladimir Putin, CNN reported.
