The Commission welcomes the Council’s adoption of a 14th package of sanctions against Russia. The new package responds to the needs and findings on the ground, and tackles enforcement issues. As the Russian aggression against Ukraine continues, the EU remains determined to keep acting to further reduce Russia’s sources of revenue and capacity to wage war. Today’s measures send a clear and strong signal of EU unity and of our support to Ukraine and its people.
The package contains important new energy-related measures targeting liquified natural gas (LNG) and measures targeting vessels which support Russia’s war. It also introduces new listings and significantly strengthens our financial sanctions.
A press release is available online. A Questions & Answers will be available after the publication of the measures in the Official Journal.
