Prehistory:
- On July 18, the EU approved a long-suffering 18th package of EU sanctions against Russia, which could not be agreed for a long time because of the resistance of Slovakia and Malta.
- In particular, the package includes sanctions against 26 companies forpassing sanctions, including 11 outside Russia – seven companies in China (three in Hong Kong), four in Turkey.
- The package also included sanctions against 105 “shadow fleet” vessels, reducing the price ceiling for Russian oil and measures against banks and companies outside the Russian Federation, which are involved in the support of its military machine.
- US Energy Minister Chris Wright then stated that imposing sanctions against Russian oil to end the war in Ukraine is a “very real opportunity”.
