The European Union is undergoing a complex process to adopt the next, that is the 19th sanctions package against Russia. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
According to the EUObserver publication, the Committee of Permanent Representatives of the European Union will meet in Brussels on September 26 to discuss this issue. Within the framework of the new sanctions package, the European Commission proposes to strengthen export controls on companies from Russia, India, and China.
In addition, the export of certain chemical substances, ores, metals, and salts may be prohibited. The proposals also envisage imposing sanctions on third-country companies suspected of assisting Russia's military-industrial complex, including Chinese firms.
Furthermore, restrictions abroad on Russia's "Mir" payment system are planned to be introduced. Additionally, a complete ban on all operations involving the companies "Rosneft" and "Gazprom Neft" as well as tightening restrictions on a number of banks in Russia and other countries are also being considered.
These sanctions are aimed at further weakening Russia's economic and military capabilities. Negotiations continue among European Union countries to reach an agreement on adopting the sanctions.
