Biden unveils new sanctions on Russia after its invasion into Ukraine

President Joe Biden forcefully condemned Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine on Thursday, calling it a premeditated attack and a brutal assault “without provocation, without justification, without necessity.” He announced new sanctions that include banning what can be exported to Russia. “We have purposely designed these sanctions to maximize a long-term impact on Russia and to minimize impact on the United States and our allies.” New sanctions imposed by Biden also target Belarus for its role in Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, with a focus on the country’s defense sector and financial institutions.
