The European Union has issued new sanctions following Russia’s decision to recognise two regions of Ukraine as independent states.
The new sanctions directly target those who were involved in the “illegal” decision and banks that finance the Russian military, the European Council and European Commission said in a joint statement issued on Tuesday afternoon.
