Borell: EU is considering new sanctions against Moscow

European Union High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and Vice President of the European Commission Josep Borrell announced on Wednesday that the 27 member states are considering imposing new sanctions on Moscow in response to the latest Russian "escalation".

Borrell said at the conclusion of an extraordinary informal meeting held on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly in New York by the foreign ministers of the European Union countries that the ministers adopted a statement that strongly condemns the recent Russian escalation.

"We will continue to increase our military assistance and consider imposing new restrictive measures against Russia," he told reporters.

"We will study and approve new restrictive measures against individuals and entities at the same time," Borrell added.
