EU imposes new sanctions
On Monday, February 16, the EU published an extended blacklist of sanctioned individuals and entities. The number of sanctioned individuals has thus reached 151 citizens of Russia and Ukraine. The number of sanctioned companies now stands at 37.
Among them are Russian Deputy Defense Minister Anatoly Antonov, First Deputy Defense Minister Arkady Bakhin, singer Iosif Kobzon and State Duma deputy, head of the Moscow department of Russia’s Communist Party Valery Rashkin. The list also includes head of the main operational department of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces General Lieutenant Andrey Kartapolov. Fourteen representatives of DPR and LPR leadership, along with leaders of the self-defense forces in east Ukraine, made it on the extended blacklist as well. All blacklisted individuals are banned from entering the EU, and their financial assets in European banks are frozen.
