The European Union has already begun work on a new package of sanctions against Russia. In addition, they are considering the imposition of sanctions against Belarus.
Only the EU has introduced the 8th package of sanctions against Russia, as it has already begun work on the next one. There will be considered options for restrictions that were discussed earlier, but were not introduced. Radio Liberty journalist Rikard Jozwiak announced this on his Twitter.
What sanctions may be imposed
The new package of sanctions may include assets, a ban on the sale of property and other points that were considered in previous rounds.
Besides, the next time the sanctions may also affect Belarus, which is actively helping Russia to wage war against Ukraine. There were no sanctions against Belarus in the previous package.
The EU is developing a law allowing the use of Russian assets to restore Ukraine
The European Commission plans to strengthen the powers of EU members in the field of confiscation of Russian assets subject to sanctions. In general, the European Union is developing a law that will allow the confiscation of already frozen assets of Russia and the confiscation of all subsequent frozen ones.
They want to transfer these funds to Ukraine as reparations from the aggressor country. Our country will be able to use them for restoration.
