President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen and EU Sanctions Envoy David O’Sullivan have discussed the strengthening of sanctions against Russia.

The relevant statement was made by President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen on Twitter, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

“Glad to discuss with our EU sanctions envoy, David O’Sullivan, about enforcement of EU sanctions against Russia and tackling circumvention. Coordination with our partners is crucial. We remain strongly committed to weakening Russia’s war machine through sanctions,” the President of the European Commission wrote.

A reminder that, on June 23, 2023, the Council of the European Union endorsed the 11th package of economic and individual restrictive measures intended to strengthen existing EU sanctions against Russia and crack down on their circumvention.
