Zelensky: Ukrainian sanctions to operate in Europe, worldwide

KYIV. Jan 16 (Interfax-Ukraine) – Ukraine will do everything to ensure that the sanctions it has imposed against Russian propagandists and Ukrainian collaborators operate on the largest possible scale in Europe and the world, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky said in a video message on Sunday.

"I think it is right that today there is a decision to expand our sanctions against Russian citizens and other persons who help terror. Almost 200 – this list is carefully prepared, and behind each name there is a responsible motivation. Those who justify terror. Those who grease the Russian propaganda machine. Those who tried to sell Ukraine somewhere in Moscow. This public will face a full list of personal restrictions," he said.

"We will do everything to make the sanctions work on the largest possible scale – in Europe, in the world. Everyone will be held to account for terror: both those who kill and those who help to kill," the president said.

"The work of the NSDC on the sanctions lists continues, and the next decisions will be made soon," Zelensky said.
