Canadian Foreign Minister Anita Anand announced sanctions against a defense company that supplied products to the Russian military-industrial complex.
The statement appears in the minister's post on X.
The defense company in question is Streit Group, which manufactures armored transport vehicles and other military equipment.
“Canada is imposing sanctions on this company based on numerous reports confirming that the armored vehicles it has produced are used by Russia's National Guard (Rosgvardiya), which is taking part in Russia's war against Ukraine,” the Ministry of Foreign Affairs emphasized.
The Canadian Foreign Ministry noted that the announced sanctions will reduce Russia's military potential in its war against Ukraine by hindering and restricting Streit Group's ability to supply military technologies and equipment to Russia.
“Canada remains unwavering in its commitment to Ukraine's sovereignty, territorial integrity, and the Ukrainian people, who continue to defend their country and their rights in the face of Russia's brutal aggression,” the statement said.
Acting Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Andrii Sybiga, for his part, thanked Canada for the decision.
“Fueling the Russian military machine must come at a price. Every company that supplies technologies, equipment, or components to the Russian military-industrial complex contributes to supporting its aggressive war against Ukraine and must be held accountable,” he added.
