EU Council expands sanctions against Russia

The European Council announced in a statement on Monday that it inflicted sanctions on four more individuals and one legal entity from Russia, including the Safe Internet League and the head of the organization Ekaterina Mizulina.

The council also decided to extend the economic sanctions against Russia for six more months, until July 31, 2024.

According to the statement, the sanctions “currently consist of a broad spectrum of sectoral measures, including restrictions on trade, finance, technology and dual-use goods, industry, transport, and luxury goods,” adding that they were “first introduced in 2014 in response to Russia’s actions destabilizing the situation in Ukraine.”
