WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The U.S. will announce a major package of sanctions on Friday aimed at Russia over the death of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny, White House national security spokesperson John Kirby said on Tuesday.
The package will “hold Russia accountable for what happened to Mr. Navalny” and for its actions over the course of the war in Ukraine, Kirby said, without providing details on the sanctions measures.
