Statele UE nu au reușit să ajungă la un acord pentru prelungirea unor sancțiuni împotriva Rusiei. Motivul: doi oligarhi apropiați de Putin
EU member states failed to reach an agreement on extending sanctions against Russia due to Slovakia's request to remove two oligarchs from the sanctions list. France proposed a compromise, but most countries opposed any removal amid ongoing Russian attacks on Ukraine. The sanctions regime, affecting around 3,000 individuals and companies, is set to expire soon, and discussions continue. Ukrainian President Zelensky criticized the EU for considering easing sanctions, emphasizing the need for pressure on Russian businesses. Oligarchs Fridman and Usmanov are closely linked to Putin and have been involved in controversial activities.
