Kallas announced the EU's plans to impose sanctions against Russian ports and airports

The European Union (EU), as part of the 21st package of sanctions against Russia, proposes to ban transactions in relation to two Russian ports and four airports. This was announced on June 8 by the head of EU diplomacy, Kaya Kallas.

"The ban on transactions will affect two Russian ports and four airports," she wrote on the social network X (ex. Twitter).

According to Kallas, the new package also provides for additional restrictions against the Russian energy sector, including measures on oil exports and LNG supplies. In addition, the EU proposes to include 30 more vessels in the sanctions lists, as well as expand the criteria for imposing restrictions on vessels and persons associated with their maintenance.

Negotiations on new anti—Russian restrictions will be difficult - which countries can block them

The Politico newspaper reported on June 1 that the EU countries in the 21st package of sanctions, most likely, will not impose a complete ban on the supply of Russian oil and restrictions on maritime services related to its transportation. The main focus will be on adjusting the current mechanism for limiting prices for Russian oil, while maintaining the current level of the price ceiling is considered as the main option.
