The new package of sanctions against Russia
EU adopts 12th package of sanctions against Russia for its continued illegal war against Ukraine.
The Commission welcomes the Council's adoption of a 12th package of sanctions against Russia.
The focus of this package is to impose additional import and export bans on Russia, combat sanctions circumvention and close loopholes.
In particular, this package includes additional listings of Russian individuals and companies and new import and export bans – such as banning the export of Russian diamonds to Europe.
It also includes stricter asset tracing obligations and tough measures on third-country companies circumventing sanctions.
