Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made a surprise visit to Ukrainian Irfin yesterday, where the genocide and torture by the Russian military were discovered.
After a video summit with Ukrainian President Zelensky, the leaders of seven major countries, the so-called G7, said they promised to phase out or ban Russian oil imports.
In addition to the G7 sanctions, the U.S. has announced additional sanctions against Russia that prohibit U.S. companies from selling advertisements to three Russian state broadcasters, and bar Americans from providing accounting or consulting services to Russians.
The White House explained the reason for the sanctions, saying, "These services accumulate the wealth of the Russian privileged and generate revenue for Putin's war."
