Decision that could put Moscow in a difficult position: 145 targets identified

Ambassadors of European Union member states gave preliminary approval on November 11 to the imposition of new sanctions against Russia.

TodayPress TV reports that the information was published by European Pravda.

Under the new restrictions, 145 individuals and legal entities are set to be added to the sanctions list.

Specifically, 12 individuals and 101 legal entities will face sanctions over activities undermining Ukraine’s territorial integrity. Among the legal entities are 50 Russian banks. Restrictions will also be imposed on companies assisting Russia’s shadow fleet.

In connection with Russia’s hybrid activities, another 30 individuals and one legal entity are planned to be added to the sanctions list. One company is also expected to be sanctioned over cyberattacks.

The new sanctions must receive final approval from the EU Foreign Affairs Council on November 16.
