Background of sanctions measures
Since the outbreak of the 20 14 Ukrainian crisis, the relationship between Russia and the EU has gradually deteriorated. The EU first imposed a series of economic sanctions on Russia, which restricted Russia's trade and financial activities. On the other hand, Russia imposed anti-sanctions on the EU and banned the import of some products from the EU.
With the passage of time, this situation has not been alleviated. Recently, the European Union imposed new sanctions on Russia, including restricting Russia's financial and energy activities. This move angered the Russian government, and Russia immediately announced tougher sanctions against the EU.
Specific contents of sanctions measures
Russia announced sanctions against the EU, including:
1. Some EU products are prohibited from entering the Russian market, including food, cosmetics and medicines.
2. Restrict the business activities of EU companies in Russia, including their activities in the fields of energy, finance and aviation.
3. Restrict the right of EU citizens to travel and work in Russia.
These measures will have a great impact on the economic and social life of the EU, and will also aggravate the tension between Europe and Russia.
Impact of sanctions
The impact of this move on the EU will be very serious. The EU is one of Russia's important trading partners, and this sanction will restrict the EU's exports, thus affecting the EU's economic growth and employment rate. In addition, this move will also have a negative impact on the political relations between the EU and Russia, which may lead to increased tension between the two countries.
