The list includes a pledge to further reduce Russian gas and oil imports, according to dpa
The European Union has agreed a new sanctions package on Moscow, including a pledge to further reduce imports of gas and oil, dpa wrote on Wednesday.
According to Reuters sources in the EU, the package will list four companies involved in China’s oil industry that allegedly circumvent western restrictions.
The final text was agreed upon by member states, but had not been adopted yet owing to reservations from Slovakia “on unrelated matters,” Reuters wrote earlier on Wednesday. According to journalist Finbarr Bermingham, citing the Danish presidency, the final member state holdout has removed its veto. The formal approval is expected tomorrow morning.
