## Summary

Canada has announced new sanctions against Russia, targeting its defence industry, cyber activities and organisations that help fund the war against Ukraine. Foreign Minister Anita Anand said the measures aim to reduce Russia’s ability to strike Ukrainian cities and reaffirm Canada’s support for Ukraine.

The package, announced on 9 November during the G7 foreign ministers’ meeting in Paris, covers 38 entities and 24 individuals, including actors involved in producing ballistic missiles and crypto exchanges used to bankroll the war. It comes as Russian attacks on Ukraine’s power grid cause widespread electricity, heating and water outages ahead of winter. Canada also said on 30 October it would contribute €500 million to the EU to help address Ukraine’s projected €70 billion budget shortfall next year.
