Australia will level more sanctions and travel bans following the Kremlin's annexation of several occupied Ukrainian regions, as part of a continued global crackdown on Vladimir Putin's invasion. 9News
Foreign Affairs Minister Penny Wong and Attorney General Mark Dreyfus said the new measures would target 28 "Russian-appointed separatists, ministers and senior officials".
Australia's position is that the annexation is "illegal" and "any claims that these territories are now part of Russia are baseless and false"."These additional sanctions reinforce Australia's strong objection to the actions of President Putin and those carrying out his orders," Wong said.
