3 Russian business enterprise leaders removed from EU sanctions list
The European Union has taken the step of removing 3 Russian business enterprise leaders from its list of sanctions targeting Russia’s actions in Ukraine, according to the EU’s Official Journal. This confirms an earlier report by Reuters. The men and women who have been removed are Grigory Berezkin, billionaire Farkhad Akhmedov, and Alexander Shulgin, the former head of Russian e-commerce enterprise Ozon. It remains unclear whether or not this move signals a shift in the EU’s strategy to sanctions or is merely a discretionary choice in these particular circumstances. Legal representatives for Berezkin and Shulgin have commented on the significance of this improvement.
