EU responds to Trump diesel deal with new Russia energy sanctions

The EU is proposing new sanctions targeting Russian oil refineries and export terminals, with 117 additional listings aimed at sectors funding the war in Ukraine. This includes 12 individuals and 105 entities facing transaction bans and asset freezes. The sanctions focus on Russia's oil processing capabilities, with listings from various regions. The proposal follows criticism of the U.S. decision to import diesel from Russia. Other sanctions target financial institutions and companies aiding Russia, including those linked to e-commerce platforms. The process will involve scrutiny by EU sanctions experts before final approval.
