Brussels \u2013\u00a0The European Union will mark the second anniversary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine with the approval of the 13th package of sanctions on Moscow. Three days after Feb. 24, the ambassadors of the EU gave the green light<\/strong> to apply restrictive measures to nearly 200 individuals and entities, adding to the more than 2,000 individuals close to the Kremlin already sanctioned in two years of war.<\/p>\n

The Council will formally adopt the sanctions package by written procedure by the desired symbolic date of Feb. 24. \u201cOne of the most comprehensive\u201d approved so far, the Belgian EU presidency stressed in making the announcement. The package is expected to focus on combating the circumvention of restrictive measures<\/strong>\u2014in continuity with the twelfth<\/a>\u2014and on the Kremlin\u2019s supply networks<\/strong> of advanced technology and military equipment.<\/p>\n

In particular, Brussels wants to target companies that supply Moscow with components for building drones<\/strong>, which are then used in bombing Ukrainian cities. \u201cWe must continue to reduce Putin\u2019s war machine. With 2,000 names in total, we keep the pressure on the Kremlin high.
\nWe are also further cutting Russia\u2019s access to drones,\u201d European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen<\/strong> commented in a post<\/a> on X.<\/p>\n

In addition to several Russian companies, the EU would also blacklist companies from Turkey and North Korea. Most importantly, the new sanctions will also reportedly target, for the first time, three Chinese companies that allegedly supplied military technology<\/strong> to Moscow. \u201cRussia is paying for its actions. The thirteenth sanctions package agreed today by the EU will further reduce the production of the Kremlin\u2019s arsenal and fragment its war chest,\u201d cheered the president of the European Parliament, Roberta Metsola<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
