Ukraine, together with partners, will continue to work on improving the sanctions restrictions on the Russian Federation - Andriy Yermak

Presidential head Andriy Yermak emphasizes that Ukraine, together with its partners, will continue to work on improving sanctions against the Russian Federation. He said this during a speech at the Sanction Coordinator Forum meeting at a meeting of the Forum Coordinators, which lasts in Brussels. Andriy Yermak emphasized the need to continue to deprive the Russian Federation with the opportunity to continue the aggressive war against Ukraine.

He expressed his belief that the joint policy of economic pressure on Russia gives results. “Sanctions are an effective tool in confrontation with the aggressor country. They deprive Russia of money to continue the war and weaken its military power, ”said the presidential office head. He thanked all partners for working on a sanction track over the last year.

According to Andrei Yermak, joint efforts made it possible to reduce Russia's oil and gas income and significantly weaken its military-industrial potential. Separately, the head of the head of state noted the initiatives related to sanctions against Russian propagandists. At the same time, Andriy Yermak noted that the effectiveness of sanctions depends on the synchronicity, systematic, determination and creativity during their implementation and implementation.

In addition, the potential of individual sanctions is not exhausted, and these mechanisms require additional implementation efforts. The head of the Presidential Office is convinced that further sanctions should touch Rosatomia, as this company is directly involved in acts of aggression and blackmail. It is also necessary to deprive the Russian Federation of income from trade in diamonds. “Russia is actively working to avoid isolation. The terrorist state reorients its producers to new markets.

Changes logistics routes. Involves third countries as intermediaries to provide trade operations, ”he said. The head of the Presidential Office said that the International Expert Group of Yermak-Macfola is working on new formats for monitoring sanctions and a new plan for strengthening sanctions restrictions on Russia. Andriy Yermak also announced a sanction forum in Kiev.
