EU working on 10th round of Russia sanctions

European Union Member States are working on a 10th package of sanctions against Russia for waging war against Ukraine, Reuters reported diplomatic sources as saying last week.

The announcement follows calls for new sanctions to curb the bloc’s nuclear fuel cooperation with Moscow, ban imports of Russian diamonds, and to reduce trade with Kremlin’s ally Belarus, among other measures. The new sanctions are expected to be put in place for the anniversary on 24 February of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
