EU takes aim at countries helping Russia to avoid sanctions
, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said the measures – which would set a new precedent for EU action – should be part of a fresh round of Russia sanctions which the member countries are discussing.
All 27 members must approve any sanctions unanimously. Over the last several months, von der Leyen’s commission has become responsible for proposing what sanction action to take, leaving the member countries to thrash out their differences, sometimes over several weeks. Speaking after a meeting with his German counterpart in Berlin, Chinese Foreign Minister Qin Gang said Beijing has laws forbidding arms deliveries to crisis regions. At the same time, he insisted that “exchange and cooperation between Chinese and Russian companies” should not be interfered with.
“This is not directed at any specific country, but rather it is directed in particular at these sanctioned goods,” she told reporters in Berlin. “But we expect of everyone, including of China, that they put pressure on their companies accordingly.”
