She told the German daily Die Welt: “EU sanctions have already exacted a heavy toll on Russia, depriving the Russian war machine of more than one trillion euros ($1.16 trillion), and in the autumn I will submit the most extensive sanction lists since the war began.”<\/p>\n
She added: “Once adopted, these sanctions will immediately increase the total number of sanctioned Russian entities by a third. Pressure must continue to build until Moscow ends its war.”<\/p>\n
Kallas provided no further details regarding the timing or specifics of the new sanctions package.<\/p>\n
In July, EU countries announced an agreement on a new package of sanctions against Russia over the war in Ukraine, following weeks of negotiations, according to diplomats.<\/p>\n
This package\u2014the 21st imposed by the European Union since the Russian invasion in 2022\u2014had been delayed due to numerous objections from member states regarding various proposed provisions.<\/p>\n
European Council President Ant\u00f3nio Costa stated: “Our 21st sanctions package targets the most impactful sectors: energy, financial services, cryptocurrencies, and trade.”<\/p>\n
