VILNIUS (REUTERS) – Europe should cease shopping for oil and fuel from Russia and will apply new sanctions over the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Lithuania’s President Gitanas Nauseda mentioned on Thursday (March 31).
“Europe must stop buying Russian gas and oil, because the Kremlin regime uses this money to finance destruction of Ukrainian cities and attacks on peaceful civilians,” Mr Nauseda informed a joint information convention with the Danish Prime Minister, Ms Mette Frederiksen.
“The fifth sanction package must deliver a maximum blow to the Kremlin regime,” he mentioned.
Russia calls its actions in Ukraine a “special military operation” to disarm and “denazify” its neighbour.
Kyiv and the West think about this a pretext for an unprovoked invasion.
