Kallas: EU to work on sanctions on Russian shadow fleet

European Union High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Kaja Kallas said on Thursday that the bloc will work on additional sanctions regarding the Russian shadow fleet. “Today we had the head of European intelligence in our meeting, giving concrete examples and numbers on how the sanctions against the shadow fleet are really affecting Russian revenues to fund this war,” Kallas stated at a press conference following the EU foreign ministers’ meeting. She also shared that Europe has a two-point plan: pressuring Russia and supporting Ukraine. Additionally, the high representative announced that the bloc adopted restrictive measures earlier today against Abdelrahim Hamdan Dagalo, the second in command of the Rapid Support Forces in Sudan. “This sends a signal that the international community will come after those who are responsible,” Kallas said and urged all parties on behalf of the EU to resume ceasefire negotiations.
