On Wednesday, September 9, the Committee of Permanent Representatives of the European Union countries continued sanctions against individuals and organizations that, according to the bloc, undermined the territorial integrity of Ukraine. This was announced by journalist Rikard Jozwiak via his Twitter page.

“The EU ambassadors gave the green light to continue for another six months the ban on issuing visas and freezing assets in relation to 177 people and 44 legal entities who are considered involved in an encroachment on the territorial integrity of Ukraine. The sanctions are 7 years old, and more names have been added since 2014”,- the message said.
