On Monday, the government of Kosovo added new sanctions against Russia, in accordance with the sanctions imposed by the United States and the European Union since Moscow launched its unprovoked attack on February 24.
The Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs and Diaspora in Kosovo, Kreshnik Ahmeti, said at the meeting of the Government of Kosovo that he was aligned with the US and EU policies on sanctions.
The sanctions package also includes Belarus.
Kosovo sanctions mean the freezing of sanctioned assets in the territory of Kosovo, the ban on operating in the Kosovo financial market, the travel ban, and the blocking of access to funds for the sanctioned.
In addition to these sanctions, the Government of Kosovo has agreed to impose restrictive measures on the Wagner group, which operates from Russian-based mercenaries.
“Individuals listed in the EU are seriously involved in human rights, including torture and extrajudicial execution,” said Ahmet, referring to relations with the Qagner group that have been sanctioned by the European bloc.
The Kremlin claims Wagner is a private group, but he seems close to Russian President Vladimir Putin.
