“We are not talking about preventive sanctions ... We continue to prepare a draft of sanctions in case the situation worsens,” RIA Novosti quoted him as saying during a speech at a meeting of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the European Parliament.
Borrell added that in the event of aggressive actions against Ukraine, "tough measures will follow, which will include sanctions."
Earlier, the head of European diplomacy said that the security structure of Europe needs to be reviewed, taking into account the interests of all countries participating in the negotiations.
