EU announces close to limit of sanctions against Russia

A diplomatic source in the European Union shared with the internet portal Euractiv the view that the EU is approaching the limit on anti-Russian sanctions. TASS.

“The seventh package of sanctions against Moscow will be incredibly difficult. “We are very close to reaching our borders,” the source said.

He said that if the decision to embargo Russian oil caused such confusion among the allies, the reaction to the proposal to ban Russian gas imports would be even worse.

He added that while progress has been made in negotiations with Hungary to veto the embargo on Russian oil imports, EU member states are “even taking a step back”.

The head of EU diplomacy, Josep Borrell, said earlier that due to disagreements over the terms of the embargo against Russia, the sixth package of sanctions against the Russian Federation could not be agreed upon again. The talks will continue at the level of the permanent representatives of the EU countries. According to Borrell, the discussion will continue for “another week or two.” Read more – In the material “socialbites.ca”.
