Ukrainian President Calls for 21st EU Sanctions Package Against Russia
Share:
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has requested negotiations for a 21st package of European Union sanctions against Russia. EU leaders on Thursday approved the 20th sanctions package during a summit in Cyprus, targeting Russia's banking sector and imposing additional restrictions on Russian oil exports. The latest sanctions represent the European Union's continued effort to pressure Russia economically over its invasion of Ukraine, with measures specifically designed to limit Moscow's access to international financial systems and reduce revenue from energy exports.
