Reuters has reported that Poland has proposed strict new sanctions on a range of Russian sectors as the EU prepares to coordinate a 12 package of sanctions.

  • According to Reuters, Poland has prosed a ban on Russian diamonds, liquid petroleum gas, a ban on providing information and communication technology services.
  • Poland has also reportedly proposed that sanctions on Belarus be brought in alignment with those on Russia, "to end systemic loophole for sanctions circumvention."
  • Bloomberg reports: "The new measures, which could be presented as early as next month, would likely include the EU’s version of the upcoming G-7 ban and possibly a long-awaited proposal to use the profits generated by frozen central bank assets to aid Kyiv..."
  • Russia hawks in the EU are also likely to press again for sanctions on Russia's nuclear sector. A move which has been resisted during each negotiation phase.
  • Bloomberg reports that European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is likely to propose, "a windfall tax on the profits frozen Russian central bank assets are generating at clearing houses, despite opposition from the European Central Bank."
