The Council of the EU adopted the 14th package of sanctions against the Russian Federation; Zelensky replaced General Sodol because of the scandal. Athletistic highlights yesterday’s key events.
The new package includes, in particular, restrictive measures against 116 individuals and legal entities “responsible for actions that destroy or create a threat to the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine.” The EU prohibits services for the transshipment of Russian liquefied natural gas on the territory of the European Union for the purpose of transportation to other countries. The EU also prohibits new investments, as well as the provision of goods, technology and services to complete liquefied natural gas projects under construction. In addition, the Council of the EU banned the use of the System for Financial Messaging (SPFS), a special financial messaging service developed by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation to neutralize the impact of the restrictive measures.
The President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky has decided to replace General Yuriy Sodol as the commander of the joint forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with General Andrey Gnatov. A statement in DBR against Sodol on Sunday, June 24, was written by the chief of staff of the Azov brigade, Bogdan Krotevich (Taurus). Krotevich accused the general of exceeding his official authority and incompetent command of the troops, which led to the loss of a large part of the territory of Ukraine and asked the commander to check the fact of cooperation with the enemy.

The first country in the world that allowed even long-distance couples to marry. Regardless of whether the distance is measured by cities or continents.
