Kosovo has joined the new sanctions of the European Union and the United States against Russia and Belarus.
In April the Council of the European Union and the United States introduced new sanctions against Russia. The government approved EU-US coordinated sanctions.
Deputy Prime Minister Besnik Bislimi announced that the sanctions are related to the freezing of assets in Kosovo of sanctioned individuals or entities, ban on access to and operation in the market, ban on travel and funds.
With the new sanctions, Kosovo also bans any Russian or Belarusian road transport company, with a few exceptions. Kosovo has also banned the import of coal from Russia or from countries that buy it from Russia.
Kosovo also imposed similar restrictive measures against the Wagner group, a Russian-based private military entity.
“The activities of this entity are contrary to international law,” Bislimi said before approval. Earlier, the Executive approved a draft law to enable the implementation of new sanctions against Russia and Belarus./Express
