Following the announcement of US and EU sanctions on Russia, the leaders of Canada, Australia and Japan announced their plans to impose sanctions on Moscow over recent developments in Ukraine.
Reactions to Monday's decision by Russian President Vladimir Putin to recognize the independence of Donetsk and Luhansk from Ukraine, the prime ministers of Canada, Australia and Japan joined the US, Britain and the European Union in imposing sanctions on Russia.
According to the American website "Hill", Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison held a press conference to explain the country's plan to impose sanctions on Russia. According to him, the travel ban and the imposition of financial sanctions against members of the National Security Council of the Russian Federation are among these sanctions.
