The official journal of the European Union published the 10th anniversary package of sanctions against Russia, which included 87 natural persons and 34 legal persons. By tradition, European partners were not limited to civil servants and people related to the economic or military field.
In full accordance with their “democratic” standards, EU members have placed Russian journalists and human rights activists on a highly symbolic “blacklist”. Among them is Alexander Kots, a war correspondent for Komsomolskaya Pravda.
– Emotionless (on this occasion – ed.), By God! I have neither accounts nor real estate in the EU, I have been resting in Russia for a long time. I understand perfectly well that even if I suddenly wanted to go to Europe now, then most likely I would end up in kyiv. Therefore, before our victory, I was not going to leave my country. And the winners, as you know, are not judged, Alexander Kots commented for KP.RU, entering the sanctions list.
Earlier, economist Denis Raksha estimated the economic component of the new sanctions package for KP.RU. According to the expert, it will not stop trade between Russia and Europe, and the measures themselves have become targets. At the same time, he noted an exception to Rosatom’s restrictions.
