Cum au ajuns doi miliardari ruși să fie scoși de pe lista neagră a UE. Ce a primit la schimb blocul comunitar

The EU faced criticism after lifting sanctions on two Russian billionaires, raising concerns about support for Ukraine. France's push for the decision linked to national security pressures from Azerbaijan. Critics argue this undermines the EU's stance against Russia, with fears it may encourage other oligarchs to seek similar relief. Despite extending sanctions on thousands of others, the decision has sparked widespread discontent among member states, particularly the Baltic nations. Ukraine expressed shock at the move, questioning the rationale behind it. EU officials insist on continuing sanctions and propose adding more names to the list, aiming to maintain pressure on Russia's military-industrial complex.
