UE scoate de pe lista sa de sancțiuni doi oligarhi ruși, la insistențele Franței și Luxemburgului - Economica.net

The EU has renewed sanctions against Russia for its invasion of Ukraine, but has removed two oligarchs from the sanctions list after pressure from France and Luxembourg. This decision, which affects around 3,000 individuals and entities supporting Russia's war efforts, was described as a difficult compromise by the Irish presidency of the EU Council. France's insistence on removing Alisher Usmanov was linked to national security concerns, while Luxembourg sought the same for Mikhail Fridman due to a legal dispute. Ukraine's Foreign Minister criticized the decision as shameful and unjustified.
