New Sanctions against Russia: What Restrictions does the European Union prepare

New restrictions are expected to be presented next month. The European Union discusses 12 packages of sanctions against Russia for a full -scale war against Ukraine. New restrictions are still being discussed, but it is known that they can affect the import of diamonds from the Russian Federation. On September 18, Bloomberg reports on September 18.

According to journalists, it will be difficult to agree on new sanctions to punish the aggressor, as previous attempts to impose sanctions against Russian gems. All because the restriction was opposed by importing countries, such as Belgium. In addition, the EU can strengthen measures to counteract Russia's bypassing. Also, as noted in the publication, European policies can agree to give our country a profit stored in some countries after freezing of assets of the Central Bank of Russia.

"As part of the discussion of the European Commission, proposals for the introduction of unforeseen income tax frozen by the assets of the Russian Central Bank in clearing chambers - despite the counteraction from the European Central Bank. Part of this amount for the restoration of Ukraine, ”the publication states. In addition, a group of countries, including Poland and the Baltic States, also urge additional restrictions on trade in Russian liquefied gas and sanctions in IT services.

They also urge to impose restrictions on the nuclear power of the Russian Federation. Recall that the European Union has recently imposed new sanctions against the Russians: the citizens of the aggressor country were forbidden to come to the Bloc countries with their own cars and with smartphones.
