European Union ambassadors have endorsed a 22nd package of sanctions, according to a source cited by Russian state news agency TASS, in what would mark another expansion of the bloc's sanctions regime.
The source said the package blacklists more than 1,500 companies and individuals, though further details on the specific measures, targeted sectors or the timeline for formal adoption were not immediately available.
Part of an ongoing sanctions regime
The EU has periodically expanded its sanctions lists in a series of packages since 2022, typically targeting individuals and entities through asset freezes and travel bans, alongside restrictions on trade in specified goods and services. Each package generally requires approval from all EU member states before taking formal effect.
Endorsement by ambassadors is typically a procedural step that precedes formal adoption of a sanctions package by EU member states' governments.
This report is based on a single source cited by TASS; independent confirmation of the package's full scope was not immediately available.
