EU Observer: EU proposes to ban the export of toilets and bidets to Russia

According to the EU Observer, the new EU sanctions "are designed to weaken the Russian military machine."

Brussels also intends to impose a ban on the export of high-tech goods that "can be used in Russian weapons systems."

The trade embargo is expected to cost €11 billion a year.

It will include "electronics, lasers, radio equipment, software, avionics, marine cameras and rare earth minerals," the newspaper writes.

The head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, has previously proposed a tenth package of sanctions with €11 billion in trade bans.

Polish Ambassador to the European Union Andrzej Sados noted that Warsaw is disappointed with the preliminary tenth package of EU sanctions against Russia.
