EU sanctions against Russia to stop the war in Ukraine
EU shows once more that Russia will pay a high price for its illegal invasion of Ukraine. We have adopted:
-
ban on import of Russian oil
-
broadcasting prohibition for Russian media
-
de-swifting more Russian banks
-
sanctions in response to war crimes.
Do you want to know how EU sanctions are adopted?
EU sanctions put maximum pressure on the Kremlin and those entities that enable it to continue its atrocities in Ukraine, targeting key sectors of the Russian economy that fund Putin’s war efforts.
Perpetrators of war crimes or human rights abuses should not be able to avoid or circumvent sanctions. EU Member States work with discretion to ensure the success of sanctions.
