This is reported by TASS with reference to a source in the EU Council.

“There is a decision of the ambassadors.

The sixth package will enter into force after publication in the Official Journal of the EU, tentatively on Friday,” he said.

Earlier, Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that EU sanctions on Russian oil would negatively affect the entire global energy market.

On May 31, it became known that the leaders of the EU countries agreed on a partial ban on the import of Russian oil.

The head of the European Council, Charles Michel, specified that this would not affect pipeline deliveries.

According to him, the sixth package of sanctions against Russia may be approved on June 1-2.
