💨 Abstract

The EU and Britain independently imposed new sanctions on Russia, targeting its "shadow fleet" of oil tankers and financial entities, without waiting for U.S. coordination. These actions follow a failed ceasefire negotiation facilitated by President Trump. Despite European leaders urging Washington to join, the U.S. has yet to announce corresponding measures. Both Britain and the EU indicated that more sanctions are forthcoming, aiming to increase pressure on Russia to end its aggression in Ukraine.
