EU Sanctions Regarding Human Rights Violations in Russia

The European Union has enacted significant sanctions against Russia in response to human rights abuses, its aggression against Ukraine, and hybrid threats. These measures specifically target individuals and entities responsible for severe human rights violations, the repression of civil society and democratic opposition, and those undermining the rule of law. Sanctions include travel bans, asset freezes, and prohibitions on providing funds to listed individuals and entities, including penal colonies, judicial figures involved in politically motivated cases, and high-level officials. Furthermore, the EU has imposed trade restrictions on equipment that could be used for internal repression or for monitoring telecommunications. These actions demonstrate the EU's condemnation of Russia's actions and its support for human rights and democracy.
