The EU is working on the 19th package of sanctions against Russia, and there are several options on the table, the bloc's chief diplomat Kaja Kallas told reporters on Friday, arriving at an informal meeting of EU foreign and defense ministers in Copenhagen, Denmark, writes UNN.
We are working on the next package, and of course there are several options on the table... the most damaging for them would be any sanctions on energy and all secondary sanctions, which, as you know, the Americans have introduced, as well as on financial services, which really hinder their access to capital, which they so desperately need.
According to her, "discussions are ongoing."
"We always put many things on the table for discussion, and then eventually we have to reach an agreement, but these discussions are ongoing, and everyone understands that given how Putin mocks peace efforts, the only thing that works is pressure," Kallas emphasized.
