President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky signed decrees introducing new sanctions against Russia. Those targeted include people involved in the production of Russian ballistic missiles, shadow financial schemes, and collaborators.
As Dilo reports, this was announced by the Office of the President of Ukraine.
Who was included on the sanctions list
The first sanctions list included 70 Russians involved in the manufacture of the Iskander-M and Tsirkon ballistic missiles, which Russia uses to carry out massive strikes on Ukrainian cities and communities to kill people and destroy civilian infrastructure.
In response to the persistent attacks, Ukraine is applying not only far-reaching sanctions but also sanctions against key employees of enterprises in the Russian defense-industrial complex and chemical industry who participate in maintaining the continuous industrial cycle for producing ballistics.
Among them are employees of the Votkinsk plant, the V. V. Bakhirev Institute of Mechanical Engineering, the enterprises Radar MMC, Granit-Electron, Anozit, Aviatek, Metafrax Chemicals, Altai, Nevinnomyssky Azot, Azot, the plants Salut, Strela, VNIIR-Progress, Mashinostroitel, Avangard, named after Sverdlov and named after Morozov, Voskresensky Aggregate Plant, as well as the research institutes Polyus and Submikron.
All these enterprises are already under sanctions by Ukraine and, in part, by the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Australia, Japan, Canada, and New Zealand.
Now Ukraine will work with partners not only to fully synchronize sanctions against these facilities of the Russian defense-industrial complex and chemical industry, but also against their key employees.
"Enterprises that produce Iskanders and Tsirkons have long been under sanctions by Ukraine and most partners. But rockets are assembled by specific people: engineers, technologists, production managers. Now we are adding them to the sanctions list as well, 70 key workers in the missile chain, from chemical plants that supply fuel and explosive components to the assembly shops in Votkinsk. Everyone who makes missiles for strikes on Ukrainian cities must understand: responsibility is personal, and it will not pass," said the president’s advisor and authorized representative on sanctions policy Vladyslav Vlasiuk.
The sanctions package includes 28 natural and 27 legal persons who help Russia evade sanctions in the financial sphere.
Among them are companies operating crypto exchanges, cryptocurrency exchange services, and their executives and owners.
Restrictions were also imposed on the executives and owners of companies belonging to the shadow banking network A7 that publicly offer tools to bypass financial sanctions.
Earlier, sanctions against the A7 network were introduced by the United States of America.
Sanctions were also imposed against 10 natural, 21 legal persons and two vessels operating in Russia’s interests on temporarily occupied territories. This list includes collaborators, internet and television service provider enterprises, as well as companies engaged in geological exploration and metallurgy on seized Ukrainian lands.
Earlier Zelensky enacted the National Security and Defense Council decision to apply sanctions against 44 persons involved in holding illegal “elections” to the Russian State Duma in temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine. The sanctions list included individuals who, according to Ukrainian authorities, facilitate the occupation of territories in Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions, as well as Crimea and Sevastopol.
