Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjártó says EU plans to introduce new restrictions on Russia. He said the 13th package of restrictions can only be “demonstrative” New possible restrictions, including an embargo on the import of aluminum from Russia, will hit EU industry and millions of citizens of the union.

Political scientists state that Brussels has actually exhausted its sanctions resources, so the new package will be of a purely “declarative nature.” However, largely under pressure from the United States, the EU is forced to continue its anti-Russian policy.
