On October 6, 2022, the EU agreed to implement a new package of
Russia sanctions in response to Russia's annexation of the
Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhia regions, its
mobilization of additional troops, and nuclear threats.
This new package includes restrictions such as:
- Freezing of assets. The EU imposed
restrictive measures, including the freezing of assets, on
additional entities and individuals, including key decision makers,
oligarchs, senior military officials, and propagandists responsible
for undermining Ukraine's territorial integrity.
- New geographical
restrictions. The new measures expand the
geographical scope of the restrictions to include not only Crimea,
Donetsk, and Luhansk, but also Kherson and Zaporizhzhia. Therefore,
these regions are now also subject to the same geographical
restrictions as Crimea or the Donetsk and Luhansk regions.
