Recall
The EU announced the adoption of the 16th package of sanctions against the Russian Federation. The package includes economic and individual restrictive measures.
The EU Council has agreed on a substantial set of 83 lists of 48 individuals and 35 entities responsible for actions undermining or threatening the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine.
In addition, the EU Council has established two new criteria that will allow the EU to impose restrictive measures on individuals and organizations that own or operate vessels of Putin's shadow fleet; and those that support or benefit from Russia's military-industrial complex.
