We’re excited to share the first semi-annual update on Global Magnitsky and related sanctions in the US, UK, EU, Canada and Australia! This update covers key developments and trends in Magnitsky-style sanctions from July to December 2024.
This report is a joint publication by the co-chairs of the targeted human rights and anticorruption sanctions coalition: @theacij.bsky.social @humanrightsfirst.org @open-society.bsky.social @rwchr.bsky.social and @redress.org.
Today the UK announced that Sri Lankan retired General Jagath Jayasuriya has now been sanctioned. In 2022, the ACIJ called on the Australian government to impose #magnitsky sanctions on Jayasuriya for human rights violations. It's time for Australia to follow suit.
