Today, EU Ambassadors agreed on the eleventh package of sanctions against Russia, says the Swedish Presidency in a post on Twitter. “The package includes measures aimed at tackling sanctions evasion and individual listings,” he points out. “I welcome the political agreement on the eleventh set of sanctions” notes the President of the Commission, Ursula von der Leyen.

Ursula von der Leyen underlines that the new package of restrictive measures “will deal a further blow to Putin’s war machine with tighter export restrictions targeting pro-Kremlin entities». “Our anti-circumvention tool will prevent Russia from getting its hands on sanctioned products,” concludes the Commission President.
