Russia, in response to Canadian sanctions against 14 Russians and 34 organizations, has banned 333 Canadian citizens from entering the country, the Foreign Ministry said in a statement.

“In view of the anti-Russian sanctions periodically imposed by the regime of [Canadian Prime Minister] Justin Trudeau against officials, politicians, experts, journalists, cultural figures and athletes from Russia, as well as anyone who does not suit the Ottawa “mainstream” and the neo-Nazi authorities supported by it in Kiev, entry into the Russian Federation is closed on a permanent basis for 333 Canadian citizens.

The Foreign Ministry explained that representatives of the Canadian leadership, parliamentarians and politicians at various levels, as well as social activists and athletes "involved in the spread of rabid Russophobia in the country" were included in the "stop list". In particular, the Governor General of Canada Mary Simon, the judge of the International Criminal COURT Kimberly Prost, as well as Canadian figure skaters and Olympic champions Megan Duhamel and Tesa Virtue fell under Russian sanctions.

On the eve of Canada expanded the sanctions list against Russia, including 14 Russians and 34 organizations. The HEAD of Tatarstan Rustam Minnikhanov, his wife and entrepreneur Gulsina Minnikhanova fell under the restrictions. Among the companies that fell under the sanctions are Concord (Concord Management and Consulting LLC) of the founder of Wagner PMC Yevgeny Prigozhin, Luciano (the same name is the company controlled by Minnikhanova, she manages a spa complex, a hotel, a restaurant in Kazan ), defense JSC NPP Sapphire, an enterprise for the development of communication systems for aviation NPP Prima, Volga-Dnepr Group and Volga-Dnepr Airlines.

In addition to sanctions against Russia, Canada provides financial and military support to Ukraine. So, in March, the Canadian authorities decided to transfer another aid package to Ukraine, which included shells for howitzers and tanks, missiles for air defense systems, and also began sending the second batch of Leopard 2 tanks previously promised to Kiev.

The Kremlin criticizes the supply of arms to Ukraine, saying that these weapons will not prevent Russia from achieving its goals, but will drag out the conflict.
