President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has approved new sanctions decisions of the National Security and Defense Council (NSDC) concerning the shadow fleet and military production of the aggressor country russia. It was stated in a message on the Facebook account of the head of state on Sunday, July 27.
Zelenskyy noted that all 18 packages of sanctions are fully synchronized and valid in Ukraine. In particular, restrictions have been applied to structures related to the russian shadow tanker fleet. It also applies to 53 individuals and legal entities – russian, Chinese, Iranian, and from other countries.
"The second sanction decision today is our sanctions against Russian military production. Restrictions have been applied against more than 90 companies that mine rare earth and rare metals, which are key for the production of electronics, guidance systems, engines and drones. We are working to ensure that our sanctions are synchronized in the jurisdictions of partners," Zelenskyy said.
According to him, the most effective argument to end the war for russia is maximum sanction pressure.
As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, on July 18, the EU Permanent Representatives Committee (Coreper) approved a new, 18th package of EU sanctions against russia.
