Canada has added the Streit Group to its sanctions list under the Special Economic Measures (Russia) Regulationspress release.

The Streit Group is a defence manufacturer. It was designated by Canada because it is said to have manufactured armoured vehicles used by the Russian National Guard in Ukraine. The Streit Group was sanctioned by the EU in October 2025 as part of its 19th Russia sanctions package and by Ukraine in 2023.
