Canada announced sanctions against 8 Venezuelan officials 🇨🇦🇻🇪
Mélanie Joly, the Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Development, announced that #Canada is imposing new #sanctions against #Venezuelan officials under the Special Economic Measures Regulations.

“These new sanctions align with previous measures adopted by Canada and its allies earlier this year. The sanctions add additional pressure on the regime of Nicolas #Maduro to respect the will of the Venezuelan people.
