The White House is set to announce a new round of significant sanctions against Russia in response to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and the recent death of opposition leader Alexei Navalny. The U.S. is coordinating with European allies to target Russian President Vladimir Putin simultaneously. The European Union has just finalized its own sanctions package, focusing on Russia's drone production, which has seen a notable increase in activity over the past year.
Additionally, the United Kingdom has unveiled its own set of sanctions, targeting six individuals associated with the penal colony where Navalny passed away. President Biden had previously indicated his intention to impose further sanctions on Russia following Navalny's death, with the announcement now scheduled for later this week.
