No EU agreement yet on 21st Russian sanctions package, official says

EU countries have yet ​to reach agreement on a broad ‌21st package of sanctions against Russia, but may decide on Monday to add 250 ​individuals and entities to their ​Russia sanctions list, EU foreign policy ⁠chief Kaja Kallas said, according to Reuters.

"We are hoping ​that we get 250 listings agreed .. this ​is the biggest number of listings we have done so far," Kallas said before a ​meeting of EU foreign affairs ​ministers in Brussels.

"When it comes to the 21st ‌package, ⁠there are still some open questions," she added.

Lithuanian Foreign Minister Kestutis Budrys said EU countries had yet to reach ​a decision ​on ⁠a proposed maritime services ban and tightening restrictions on Russian ​liquefied natural gas.

"So I'm looking ​to ⁠see whether we are serious enough. We cannot put economic interests above security ⁠interests ... ​that is a very ​dangerous trend," he told reporters.
