WASHINGTON — The United States and European Union heaped hundreds of new sanctions Friday on Russia in connection with the second anniversary of its invasion of Ukraine and in retaliation for the death of noted Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny last week in an Arctic penal colony.
The U.S. government imposed roughly 600 new sanctions on Russia and its war machine in the largest single round of penalties since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24, 2022.
The EU, for its part, added sanctions on several foreign companies over allegations that they have exported dual-use goods to Russia that could be used in its war against Ukraine. The 27-nation bloc also targeted scores of Russian officials, including members of the judiciary, local politicians and people it said were “responsible for the illegal deportation and military re-education of Ukrainian children.”
President Joe Biden said the sanctions come in response to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s “brutal war of conquest” and to Navalny’s death, adding that “we in the United States are going to continue to ensure that Putin pays a price for his aggression abroad and repression at home.”
But while previous sanctions have increased costs for Russia’s ability to fight in Ukraine, they appear to have done little to deter Putin, and it was unclear that the latest big round would significantly alter that.
In response to Navalny’s death, the State Department targeted three Russian officials the U.S. says are connected to his death, including the deputy director of Russia’s Federal Penitentiary Service, who was promoted by Putin to the rank of colonel general Monday, three days after Navalny died.
The sanctions bar the officials from traveling to the U.S. and block access to U.S.-owned property. But they appear largely symbolic, given that the officials are unlikely to travel to or have assets or family in the West.
White House national security spokesman John Kirby said to “expect more” action later related to Navalny’s death, adding that “today this is just a start.”
The Biden administration is levying additional sanctions as House Republicans are blocking billions of dollars in additional aid to Ukraine. The war is becoming entangled in U.S. election-year politics, with former President Donald Trump voicing skepticism about the benefits of the NATO alliance and saying he would “encourage” Russia to “do whatever the hell they want” to countries that, in his view, are not pulling their weight in the alliance.
On Friday, Biden urged Congress to pass Ukraine aide, which has stalled since House Speaker Mike Johnson blocked votes on aid passed by the Senate for Ukraine and other countries.
“Russia is taking Ukraine territory for the first time in many months,” Biden said. “But here in America, the speaker gave the House a two-week vacation. They have to come back and get this done, because failure to support Ukraine in this critical moment will never be forgotten in history.”
Also enforcing that message Friday was Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., who during a surprise visit to Ukraine challenged Johnson to take up the $95 billion national security package passed by the Senate.
“The weight of history is on
