The measures include an asset freeze and a ban on providing funds to listed individuals and entities, as well as a ban on travel and transit through the EU.
The EU also imposed sanctions to limit Russia's access to financial markets and capital. This includes "a sectoral ban on financing the Russian Federation, its leadership and the Central Bank."
Thus, restrictive measures now affect 555 individuals and 52 organizations.
The sanctions will come into force after publication in the Official Journal of the EU, which is expected later on February 23.
