EU Eyes Visa Ban on Chinese Aiding Russia’s War
The EU is proposing its fifteenth sanctions package against Russia, targeting entities aiding the war effort in Ukraine. This includes asset freezes for six Chinese companies and one Chinese individual, along with visa bans for 54 individuals and asset freezes for 29 companies, primarily Russian. The sanctions aim to further restrict Russian access to resources and international cooperation. Despite previous sanctions impacting visa access, Russian tourist and business visa applications to the EU have still increased significantly.
