EU Sanctions 77 People Over Elections in Occupied Ukrainian Territories
On October 12, the European Union imposed sanctions on 77 people. They took part in Russian State Duma elections or helped organize them.
The elections took place in September in Ukrainian territories occupied by Russia. The sanctions target 74 candidates and three members of Russia’s Central Election Commission.
People on the list are barred from entering EU countries. Their money and property in the EU will be frozen. This means they will not be able to use them. The EU does not recognize these elections or their results. It says Russia cannot hold elections in Ukrainian territories.
