The European Union is developing the 11th package of sanctions against Russia. Dozens of companies from China, Iran, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan could be subject to restrictions for helping Russia to circumvent sanctions. This was reported Archyde.com with reference to sources. According to Archyde.com, not all EU members agree with such restrictions. According to the expectations of the diplomats interviewed by the agency, it will take a long time to discuss the 11th package, and discussions on this issue will be stormy.

As part of the new package, the EU may also impose export restrictions against countries that re-export goods from the EU to Russia. They may also tighten the rules for oil tankers. They may be prohibited from unloading on the high seas and entering ports with disabled GPS trackers.

On May 8, the European Commission handed over to EU members a draft of the 11th package of sanctions against Russia. According to Bloomberg, as part of a new round of restrictions, a ban on the transit of goods through Russia is being considered. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said that the upcoming tightening of sanctions against the Russian Federation would not be the last.
