We must continue to deprive Russia of the means to wage war against Ukraine. EU’s import ban on Russian petroleum products comes into force on Sunday.
With the G7 we are putting price caps on these products, cutting Russia’s revenue while ensuring stable global energy markets.

Our 9 packages of sanctions are biting, and a 10th one is on its way.
With our partners, we must deny Russia the means to kill Ukrainian civilians and destroy homes and offices.
New measures will hit the trade and technology that supports Russia’s war machine.

Together, we are bringing light to Ukraine!
Ukrainians can exchange their old bulbs at the post office for energy-efficient LED bulbs.
The EU is gladly providing 35 million of them.
Every kW of energy saved is precious to counter Russia's energy war.

We will always remember the millions of victims murdered during the Holocaust.
But remembrance is not an aim in itself.
We must go a step further.
Let us fight antisemitism, which is on the rise today.
And let us make Jewish life prosper in an open, equal EU society.
