EU sanctions nearly 1,600 Russians tied to arms industry
Original: EU imposes sanctions on almost 1,600 Russian people and companies linked to Russia’s arms industry
The European Union has imposed sanctions on almost 1,600 Russian individuals and companies connected to Russia's arms industry, expanding its restrictions over Moscow's war effort. The measures target people and entities the EU links to weapons production and supply, adding to a broad sanctions regime already in place since Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Details of who is on the list and how enforcement will work remain limited in initial reports.
Why now: The EU has just announced a new large sanctions package against Russian arms-linked targets, drawing attention to Europe's ongoing economic pressure on Moscow.
