EU and Britain have published new sanctions on Russia: ‘Putin plays interest in peace …’

The European Union and Britain announced on Tuesday new sanctions on Russia, not waiting for them to join them now, the day after US President Donald Trump spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin who had not promised to agree to a truce in Ukraine. London and Brussels have announced that sanctions have been focused on the Russian fleet of tankers in shadow and financial companies that have helped Russia alleviate the effects of earlier sancies.

With new measures, Russia is to prevent access to key military technologies and reduce energy sales revenue. European High Representative for Foreign and Security Policy Kaja Kallas He says it is the most comprehensive package of sanctions so far.

« While Putin Acting interest in peace, new sanctions are prepared and as long as Russia persists in its illegal and brutal war, our answer will be sharper, ”Kallas said.

British Foreign Minister David Lammy He warned that « delaying the effort to establish peace would double our commitment to help Ukraine and use sanctions to restrain Putin’s war machine. »

The EU limited the prices of Russian oil to $ 60 per barrel in 2022 to reduce Russia with revenues financed by the Ukraine War. However, to bypass the sanctions of Russia, it uses tankers sailing under the flags of third countries, which are often unregistered and uninsured. Sanctions include 189 new ships forbidden to access European ports, which climbed the total number of sanctioned ships to 342.

On the black list are individuals who allow the fleet to operate, the shipping company for the transport of raw oil and oil derivatives, including those from the United Arab Emirates, Turkey and Hong Kong and one large insurer of tankers. Additional restrictive measures of surgutneftegase, a Russian oil company that Moscow provides significant revenues and a Russian oil displaced company, are also introduced.

The new package also sanctioned 45 Russian companies and individuals who supply the Russian army with drones, weapons, ammunition, military equipment, critical components and logistical support.

The EU Council was also added by 31 legal entities to the list of those subject to stricter limitations of exports of goods and dual-purpose exports, due to their support to the Russian military and industrial complex.
