RT @JosepBorrellF: Member States agreed on the 8th sanctions package.

RT @EU_Commission: Crimea, Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, Donetsk and Luhansk are Ukraine.
The EU does not and will never recognise this illegal annexation.
We are strengthening our sanctions against Russia and will keep providing strong support to Ukraine, for as long as it takes.
RT @JosepBorrellF: The announced annexation of Ukrainian territories by Russia is a major breach of international law & violation of UN Charter. No sham referendum can justify it.
Ukraine’s territorial integrity and sovereignty is non-negotiable.
The EU’s support to #Ukraine remains unwavering.
RT @JosepBorrellF: Following Russia's further escalation of its aggression against Ukraine, we are proposing a new package of sanctions against Russia.
We will continue supporting Ukraine. We stay on course.

RT @JosepBorrellF: EU denounces holding of illegal “referenda” and their falsified outcome.

We commend the courage of Ukrainians, who continue to oppose & resist Russian invasion.
Russia: 🇪🇺 condemns the shooting at a school in Izhevsk and expresses its heartfelt condolences to the families and friends of the victims of today’s tragic event.
