Moscow will respond to the adoption in Canada of the "Magnitsky law"

25
The approval of the Canadian parliament’s lower house of the “Law on behalf of Sergei Magnitsky” is a blatant interference in the internal affairs of Russia and will not remain unanswered, reports TASS Statement by Kirill Kalinin, press secretary of the Russian Embassy in Ottawa.





The decision of the Parliament and the Government of Canada (on the adoption of this law), which they regard as a human rights and anti-corruption measure, is a regrettable confrontational act and blatant interference in the internal affairs of Russia,
said Kalinin.

He called it the “continuation of the unsuccessful policy (of the Canadian government), which the Russophobic elements are pursuing.”

The diplomat added that this decision "is contrary to common sense and Canadian national interests, it isolates Canada from one of the key world powers."

This is a hostile move, like any anti-Russian sanctions, and will be met with resolute and mutual countermeasures,
He stressed.

On Monday, the House of Commons of the Canadian Parliament at the final hearing approved the adoption of the “Law on the Victims of Corrupt Foreign Governments” (“The Law named after Sergei Magnitsky”) and passed it to the upper house (Senate), where the document must be approved on October 4. Then the law will be passed on to the signature of the Governor-General of Canada, after which it will enter into force.

Recall that the cooperation between Canada and the Russian Federation was almost completely suspended in 2014 year at the initiative of the then Prime Minister Stephen Harper. The reason for this was the reunification of the Crimea with Russia and the emergence of the conflict in the Donbass.

        Of the overseas (except the USA), only Australian Russophobes are more dangerous than Canadian ones. Well, the first we beat in hockey (sometimes), and the nature of Russophobia of Australian politicians is difficult to understand. Perhaps they somehow associate Russians with arrogant kangaroos? smile

      Hi, Vyacheslav.
      The fact that Canada sits on a tandem bike with the United States is a big secret for the pygmy Ho-Chu, but not for the rest of the world. Well, here and compare in one bottle the expansion of US sanctions, provocations with the deep. the property of the Russian Federation in the USA and this last law in Canada. What is this if not an attempt to deregulate Russia and force it to take rash decisions. Anglo-Saxons are masters of multi-way provocations, and (IMHO) the task of our Foreign Ministry is to block their ultimate goal. And lastly, he smiled at Lavrov’s trolling about the announcement of the CIA:

      So they say what
      This is a hostile step, like any anti-Russian sanctions, and will be met with decisive and mutual countermeasures

      The main thing is decisive. No.

    The approval by the lower house of the Canadian parliament of the “Sergei Magnitsky Law” is undisguised interference in the internal affairs of Russia and will not go unanswered
    Let’s see what kind of law this is? The Magnitsky Act adopted in 2012 in the United States imposes personal sanctions on several dozen Russians. It prohibits them from carrying out financial activities, that is, investing in the United States!
    Then I can only welcome such a law, let these citizens keep their money in a savings bank, and not enter the West, invest in Russia, if you can report to the tax, then what is the problem and what is the reason for the coup?
    And what kind of answer might there be, Canadians will be forbidden to keep their savings in our banks? What a horror! bully

    It would be high time for us to answer asymmetrically. At a time when the mattress covers with their satellites are acting, our leadership "threatens with a finger." It would be necessary to respond to the "cuffs" with a "kick in the ass" !!! ...

      They don’t give a lethal weapon, they clamped the money too ... so at least a small dirty trick for the sake of the pro-programs, but Ukrainian citizens.
      No direct costs. and indirectly we can carry it.

    We know these answers of our MiD. They will puff their cheeks for a long time, compete in wit, exposing a deceitful act. But then they decide that we should behave smartly and not answer the call, because sanctions are not our way.
