The Russian Federation should be subjected to increased pressure, including through the implementation of sectoral sanctions that harm the Russia's economy.

This was stated by the Prosecutor General of Ukraine, Andriy Kostin, on the social network X.

On Wednesday, March 6, the Prosecutor General held a meeting with the executive directors of the European External Action Service, Michael Zibert, Stefan Tomat, Belen Martinez Carbonell, and Elen Le Gal.

During the meeting, Kostin thanked for the strong support of the EU in political, economic, and humanitarian spheres during these difficult times when Ukraine is fighting for freedom and independence.

According to him, "our goal is to build a comprehensive accountability network, which will include effective mechanisms for the criminal prosecution of Russian military and political leadership for the crime of aggression, confiscation of Russian assets, and compensation for damages to those affected by this war."

"We are also sincerely grateful for the EU's firm position on sanctions pressure on the terrorist country and its allies. It is necessary to continue to increase this pressure, including through the introduction of sectoral sanctions that will significantly restrict the Russian economy and the aggressor's ability to continue the war," Kostin noted.
