PM Releases '10 Point Plan' To Support Ukraine & Punish Putin Gov't

Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki haspublished a 10-point plan on Politico intended to support Ukraine and hit the Russian economy. The ten points are as follows:

• 1. Cut off all Russian banks from the SWIFT international payment system. 2. Put in place a common asylum policy for Russian soldiers who refuse to serve the criminal regime in Moscow. 3. Completely stop Russian propaganda in Europe. Freedom of speech does not mean the right to lie. 4 Block Russian ships from our ports. 5. The same blockade must be put in place for road transport in and out of Russia. 6. Impose sanctions not only on oligarchs but on their entire business environment. 7. Suspend visas for all Russian citizens who want to enter the EU. 8. Impose sanctions on all members of Putin’s party, United Russia. 9. Put in place a total ban on the export to Russia of technologies that can be used for war. 10. Exclude Russia from all international organizations. We cannot sit at the same table as criminals.
• At the EUCO summit in Brussels, Morawiecki states that his plan has the support of the Slovenian and Czech gov'ts as well. Calls on bloc to support the document's aims.
• The plan does not include specific references to sanctions or bans on the importation of Russian oil and gas, potentially making the document an easier sell to EU leaders reliant on Russian hydrocarbons.
