EU to Hit Russia With Harshest Sanctions Over ‘Barbaric’ Attack on Ukraine
Russian President Vladimir Putin announced military operation in Ukraine on Thursday warning other countries that any attempt to interfere with the Russian action would lead to “consequences they have never seen.” As Putin spoke, big explosions were heard in Kyiv, Kharkiv and other areas of Ukraine
After Russia launched a full scale invasion of Ukraine, European Union leaders said that they will impose new sanctions on Russia, freezing its assets, halting access of its banks to the European financial market and targeting "Kremlin interests" over its "barbaric attack" on Ukraine. “President Putin is responsible for bringing war back to Europe," European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen said, adding that the EU would hold him accountable.
