USA & EU discuss further Russia sanctions

Next week, EU Foreign Ministers will be discussing (inter alia) the security situation in Ukraine, including whether new sanctions should be imposed against Russia as part of a coordinated action with the USA. The measures (if imposed) will reportedly target individuals and entities involved in Russian acts against Ukraine in the Sea of Azov; namely, the seizure of 3 Ukrainian naval vessels and the continued detention of 24 Ukrainian sailors in the Kerch Strait by Russian authorities.
