The proposed measures were voiced by Ursula von der Leyen.
Today, the European Union, as reported by the head of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen, will present the next, already the sixth package of anti-Russian sanctions.
According to RIA Novosti, according to the official, the list of restrictive measures will include new bans: for example, the EU intends to stop broadcasting a number of Russian TV channels and limit the next functions of Sberbank.
Leyen explained that the sanctions will affect three state-owned Russian TV channels, which the European Union accuses of spreading misinformation about the situation in Ukraine.
As for Sberbank, it is planned to disconnect the leading banking organization of the Russian Federation from the SWIFT international system.
Among the measures to be proposed to the European Union, the EC will present a complete ban on the import of Russian oil to Europe, which will be carried out in stages.
It is also indicated that the list contains the names of the Russian military, including the heads of the Russian special operation in the Ukrainian Mariupol.
Recall that the media has already reported on the disconnection of two Russian banks from SWIFT – ICD and Rosselkhoznadzor, which may also fall under new EU anti-Russian sanctions.
