The European Union has finally approved the sixth sanctions package against Russia for the war against Ukraine. This was stated by the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky in a video address to the nation.

“European countries have agreed to a significant restriction of oil imports from Russia. And I am grateful to everyone who worked to reach this agreement.. The bottom line is minus tens of billions of euros, which Russia will now be unable to use to finance terror, ”Zelensky said..

The head of state recalled that the refusal of European countries from Russian oil and other fossil fuels will accelerate the transition to renewable energy sources.

Strategically, this leaves the Russian state on the sidelines of the modern economy.. With such an aggressive policy and a course of isolation from the civilized world, Russia simply will not be able to adapt.. Which means he loses.. Loses economically,” said the President of Ukraine.

Ukraine expects one of the largest Russian banks Sberbank to be disconnected from SWIFT as part of the sixth sanctions package.



“Finally, stopping the broadcasting of Russian disinformation channels in Europe. And new personal sanctions. We will also work on new restrictions against Russia for this war,” Zelensky summed up..
