I welcome the decision to increase sanctions on Russia Presidential candidate and leader of the Batkivshchyna Party Yulia Tymoshenko welcomes the decision by the G7 to impose additional sanctions on Russia and believes such steps can stop Putin’s aggression against Ukraine. Now is the time for a third round of sanctions. I welcome the decision to implement them and hope that as was announced today these will be sanctions that target the Russian banking system and energy sector, Yulia Tymoshenko said in an interview with The Associated Press. The leader of Batkivshchyna believes sanctions can be effective in stopping the Russian aggressor. I hope these sanctions are powerful enough to stop Putin’s aggression against Ukraine, return Russian troops to the territory of his country, and stop the destabilization, she said. Yulia Tymoshenko said the democratic world needs to be united in its effort to thwart Russia’s imperial plans. Putin doesn’t only dream of conquering Ukraine and the Eurasian space, he dreams of global influence, the presidential candidate said. On Friday, April 25, the White House released a joint statement saying the G7 nations have agreed to move swiftly to intensify targeted sanctions on Russia.
