Trade embargo, bans on investment and tourist services
18 December, 14:46
(ANSA) - BRUSSELS - From today, it's forbidden for EU
stakeholders to make any investment in Crimea, to offer tourist
services - even docking EU cruise ships in the port of
Sevastopol -, to export some products in transport,
telecommunications and energy sectors. These are the main new
sanctions approved by the EU. This decision - a press release
issued by the EU Council reported - has been made in accordance
with the statements made by the EU foreign ministers on Monday.
It is aimed at ''strengthening the EU policy of non-recognition of the illegal annexation ''of the Crimea peninsula and Sevastopol'' by Russia. ''These new sanctions are in addition to measures already taken in June and July''. (ANSA).
