The Council of the European Union on 6 October 2022 considered that 30 persons and 7 entities responsible for actions undermining or threatening the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine should be added to the list of persons, entities and bodies subject to restrictive measures set out in Annex to Decision 2014/145/CFSP.
The Council deems it necessary to introduce a further listing criterion specifically targeting the facilitating of infringements of the prohibition against circumvention of restrictive measures that contribute to the destabilising of Ukraine.
Additionally, the Council introduce a derogation from the asset freeze and the prohibition to make funds and economic resource available with respect to two listed entities, as well as to include additional provisions on Member States’ obligations concerning the granting of derogations.
