Ukrinform reports.European Commission spokesperson Paula Pinheiro told journalists at a Brussels briefing that the 19th sanctions package against Russia has been approved.“I can confirm that the Commission has approved the 19th sanctions package against the Russian Federation today,” she said.Details of the package will be announced this afternoon, September 19, by European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Josep Borrell.The EU delayed its 19th sanctions package against Russia due to U.S. and EU pressure on Slovakia and Hungary to cut their dependence on Russian oil.Earlier, Volodymyr Zelenskyy outlined what could be included in the 19th sanctions package. Priorities include the Russian banking sector and banks in countries that continue trading with Russia, as well as shadow fleet infrastructure that funds Russia’s war: ship captains, insurers, terminals used for oil shipments, and market operators who tolerate Russian schemes.
