The commission is about to present a new series of restrictions directed against Russia’s cryptocurrencies, banks and energy.
European Commission president Ursula Von der Lyain announced plans to show the 19th package of European Union penalties, aimed at limiting Russia’s possessions, as well as Russian banking and energy industries. It was reported in Von Der Layen on Network X.
The information became known after his telephone conversation with US President Donald Trump. Von Der Layen noted that the discussion was productive and focused on steps to strengthen economic pressure in Russia for the joint struggle against aggressive actions.
He said the commission is already preparing a new series of restrictions aimed at the key aspects of Russia’s financial and energy. Particular attention will be paid to penalties associated with crypto actions.
Ursula Von Der Layen also emphasized that Russia’s income from fossil fuel is a source of funding of military operations in Ukraine. In this regard, he emphasized the need to speed up the process of gradually refusing EU countries to import Russian fossil fuel.
Earlier it was found that the presentation of the 19th package of penalties was temporarily postponed. The decision is said to be associated with the pressure of US president Donald Trump, who requires European countries to stop buying Russia’s oil.
The Bloomberg agency writes that the new EU penalty package against Russia will later be announced, as Europeans are trying to coordinate a single G7 approach.
