Hello

I have a question regarding AES in python cryptography which uses a block
size of 128 bits. Currently I am using 256 bit keys with AES in CTR mode.
However, internally the python cryptography uses a block size of 128. My
understanding is that block size and key size are the same for symmetric
encryption. How does a 256 bits key work in this case? Appreciate if
someone could provide some explanation about this and clear my confusion.

Thanks
Arshad
