Japan
Japan said Monday that it will impose more sanctions on Russia, aligning with the G-7. Specifically, Prime Minister Fumio Kishida said Japan will limit transactions with Russia's central bank and that it would impose sanctions on Belarus, Reuters
reported. Over the weekend, the country indicated it will
deny certain Russian banks access to SWIFT and that it will freeze Putin's assets.
Kishida announced a range of measures last week, including freezing the assets of certain Russian individuals and financial institutions while also banning exports to Russian military organizations.
"In response to this situation, we will strengthen our sanction measures in close cooperation with the G7 and the rest of the international community," Kishida said in a press conference on Friday.
