New U.S. sanctions on Russia as war with Ukraine enters Year 3

As the Russia-Ukraine war enters its third year, the Biden administration has imposed hundreds of new sanctions on Russia. President Biden said the latest sanctions come in response to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s “brutal war of conquest” and to the death of Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny. But while previous sanctions have increased costs for Russia’s ability to fight in Ukraine, they appear to have done little so far to deter Putin and his forces.
