Canada sending heavy artillery to Ukraine, imposing sanctions on Putin's daughters
The government has announced a round of new sanctions targeting individuals with ties to the Russian government — including President Vladimir Putin's daughters — and plans to send heavy artillery to Ukraine as Russian forces step up their attacks in the country's eastern regions.
Katerina Tikhonova and Maria Vorontsova, Putin's adult daughters, are among 14 individuals being added to Canada's sanctions list. The U.S. and the U.K. made similar announcements earlier this month.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told a press conference in New Brunswick on Tuesday that Canada will send heavy artillery to support Ukrainian forces.
"We've been in close contact with President (Volodymyr) Zelensky since the very beginning and we're very responsive to what it is that they need most specifically," Trudeau said. "Their most recent request from Canada is to help them with heavy artillery, because that's what the phase of the war is in right now."
