Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala said that the EU’s seventh package of anti-Russian sanctions would not include restrictions on Russian gas supplies. His words are quoted by Reuters.
“It is expected that the new sanctions, the development of which is currently being finalized by the European Commission, will affect the import of gold from Russia, expand the list of dual-use goods prohibited for export, and will also be extended to a larger number of individuals,” the Czech prime minister said.
According to Fiala, some European countries are dependent on Russian gas, which makes its inclusion in the sanctions list problematic. The Czech Republic is one of the countries that rely heavily on fuel from Russia.
