Ukraine will urge the EU next week to take stronger independent steps to isolate Moscow, including seizing Russian assets and imposing sanctions on some buyers of Russian oil, amid uncertainty over Washington’s support.
A new Ukrainian white paper proposes that the European Union adopt tougher sanctions against Russia independently of the U.S., including faster seizure of sanctioned assets and targeting foreign companies aiding Moscow. The paper suggests introducing secondary sanctions on major Russian oil purchasers like India and China—a move Europe has been hesitant to take.
The initiative follows U.S. President Donald Trump’s recent decision not to impose additional sanctions on Russia after talks with Vladimir Putin, despite pressure from Kyiv and European leaders. Ukraine warns that America’s reduced engagement in sanctions enforcement threatens the unity and effectiveness of Western sanctions. The paper urges the EU to take the lead and strengthen measures to maintain pressure on Russia regardless of U.S. participation.
