The sanctions list has been expanded to include 743 individuals and 826 legal entities that contribute to Russia's aggressive war against Ukraine through their activities. This is the largest expansion of the EU sanctions list to date. Thus, the EU is increasing pressure on Russia and limiting its capabilities to continue the war. According to Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna, this shows that Europe is staying the course and continuing to intensify sanctions pressure on Russia. In recent weeks, Russia has become even more brutal in its attacks and continues to demonstrate that it is not ready for peace. In the lead-up to the fifth military winter, Ukraine needs both military and economic and political support, and Europe is continuing to act to provide the necessary assistance. Estonia believes that to cover Ukraine's financial needs, frozen Russian assets in Europe should be utilized. First, it is necessary to hold those responsible for all attacks accountable, as this will help deter individuals who are recruited to carry them out. Second, opportunities for Russian citizens to travel to Europe must be limited. We need to put an end to the situation where more than half a million visas are issued annually to Russian citizens for entry into the Schengen area. The expansion of the EU will make the union stronger and enhance its security. By admitting neighboring countries that share our values into the union, we will reduce the opportunities for third countries to harm our neighbors through disinformation campaigns and other influence activities. #санкции #Россия #Украина (translated)
