EU adds 48 Russia and 9 organizations to its new sanctions list

Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs and External Economic Relations Peter Ziyarto said that the new EU sanctions list includes 48 people, including the Russian Deputy Prime Minister.

“48 people and nine organizations will be added to the EU sanctions list, including the Russian deputy prime minister, political leaders from several regions and Sberbank,” Ziyarto said.

After the start of the Russian special operation in Ukraine, Western countries began to impose sanctions on Russia, in particular, on Russian energy resources. Russian President Vladimir Putin said that the policy of containing and weakening Russia is a long-term strategy for the West, stressing that the sanctions dealt a serious blow to the entire global economy.
