Journalists asked Kallas about the expected time for the introduction of the 21st sanctions package. The EU diplomacy chief replied that a meeting would take place on Wednesday morning, and "work is ongoing."
"I would like this package to be strong, because in fact the constant attacks on civilians are aimed at the most populated areas (in Ukraine)," Kallas said.

Earlier, Kallas reported that the EU has not yet agreed on the 21st package of sanctions against russia.
To a clarifying question about whether there are sanctions that can be adopted against russia outside the 21st package, Kallas indicated: "We have 250 entities, that is, different people, individuals who have been engaged in various activities, so this is a huge list, which I hope we will adopt today."
"As for the 21st sanctions package, there are still some open questions, but we are working to reach an agreement," Kallas emphasized.
