The Council of the European Union has extended the validity of sanctions against those responsible for undermining or threatening the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine for another six months, until March 15, 2023.
This was reported in the press service of the EU Council.
Current sanctions include restrictions on the movement of individuals, freezing of assets, and a ban on providing funds or other economic resources to individuals and legal entities on the list. As before, 1,206 individuals and 108 organizations are subject to restrictions.
- Earlier, Hungary threatened not to support the continuation of some European Union sanctions against Russia, unless three oligarchs were excluded from the list. But this time, this country did not block the extension of EU sanctions against Russia, the spokeswoman of the Czech Republicʼs representation in the Council of the EU said.
