The Ministers of Foreign Affairs (MFA) of the European Union (EU) countries supported the continuation of sanctions against the Russian Federation (RF).
This was reported via the Twitter account of the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Kaja Kallas.
"This will continue to deprive Moscow of revenues to finance its war. Russia needs to pay for the damage they are causing," wrote Kallas.
She added that the sanctions will continue to deprive Moscow of revenues to fund the full-scale war and emphasized that the enemy must pay for the damage it causes.
Following the full-scale invasion, the West imposed sanctions aimed at isolating Russia and weakening its economic and military potential.
The sanctions covered a wide range of measures, including financial restrictions such as disconnecting Russian banks from the SWIFT system, as well as bans on exporting high-tech goods like microchips, aviation equipment, and advanced technologies. Additionally, personal sanctions were imposed on high-ranking officials, oligarchs, and companies connected to the regime of dictator Vladimir Putin.
