“We will discuss today and, I think, prohibit imports of steel and aluminum from Russia. It would have affected Russia much. We make very tangible blows on the Russian economy and finance. Legally, new sanctions will be approved by the ambassadors of the EU in Brussels today, and the use of These measures will begin in the coming days, “said Bon.
