Zelensky Signs New Sanctions Targeting Russia's Defense Industry And Oil Sector
“
Today, I signed several new sanction decisions, covering various areas of our sanctions. The first extends sanctions that were due to expire. This concerns Russian entrepreneurs and their ties to Putin's system,” Zelensky said.
The second decree targets the Russian defense industry, specifically manufacturers of drones and related components.
The third decree imposes sanctions on individuals and companies connected to the Russian oil sector.
“We continue our comprehensive policy of pressure on Russia, and we will keep coordinating it with our partners. Many of Ukraine's initiatives are already forming the basis for our partners' sanctions. We expect our sanctions to be synchronized with those of our partners. We also look forward to new EU sanctions – the 19th package – and corresponding steps from the United States,” the President emphasized.
According to Zelensky, Russia continues to ignore or reject every opportunity that could end the war and restore security.
“Putin wants to wage it and do it in exactly this way – by terrorist methods, despicable methods. Russia must feel the consequences. Europe, America, the G7, and the G20 have the power to deal with any terrorist. And they will. I thank everyone who is helping defend lives,” the President stressed.
