New package of sanctions against Russia will be presented to EU member states next week - journalist Jozwiak

This was reported by Radio Liberty correspondent Rikard Jozwiak on Twitter.

"The EU's 11th sanctions package on Russia is likely to be presented to EU member states next week with a view to have it adopted by the end of the month," he wrote.

The preparation of the 11th package of sanctions was announced on April 13. The EU is working to prevent Russia from circumventing the restrictions that have already been imposed.

• Earlier, the EU imposed sanctions on the Wagner PMC for its participation in the war against Ukraine.
