EU Ministers discuss 11th round of Russian sanctions - Burke

The eleventh round of sanctions against Russia are being discussed today by EU Ministers meeting in Brussels. They’ll also prepare for an EU Leaders summit in June. The sanctions being proposed include targeting other countries and entities that help Russia evade existing trade embargoes.

Irish man David O’Sullivan, who is a former senior EU diplomat, was recently appointed a special envoy to ensure existing sanctions against Russia are implemented. Speaking in Brussels this morning, Europe Minister Peter Burke says the next package of sanctions will be “very significant”.
