Ukraine has synchronized its sanctions with the European Union’s 20th package, further tightening restrictions against Russia, Vladyslav Vlasyuk, presidential representative on sanctions policy, told Kyiv Post. “The consistent synchronization of sanctions with the EU reduces the space for circumventing restrictions through different jurisdictions and complicates the restoration of critical supply chains for the Russian military-industrial complex,” Vlasyuk said.JOIN US ON TELEGRAMFollow our coverage of the war on the @Kyivpost_official. How do the sanctions affect Russia’s oil and drone industries According to Vlasyuk, the updated list includes PJSC Slavneft, one of Russia’s largest oil companies, which accounts for about 2.9% of the country’s total oil production. A separate section of the sanctions targets enterprises involved in the production of unmanned systems and components for Russia’s military-industrial complex. Among them are: • Technodron, which develops FPV drones of the Skvorets family, including versions adapted for maritime use commissioned by the Russian Navy; • Atlant Aero, a manufacturer of FPV drones and components for Orion-type unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), as well as electronic warfare and digital integration systems; • Clevercopter, which develops and produces drones for multiple purposes and participates in Russian state UAV supply and import-substitution programs. Who else has been added to Ukraine’s updated sanctions list? Sanctions were also imposed on Azret Bekkiev, first deputy general director of the United Instrument-Building Corporation, a Rostec subsidiary producing military electronics, communications systems and control equipment used by Russian forces.
