Council Decision (CFSP) 2021/1792 of 11 October 2021 amending Decision 2014/145/CFSP concerning restrictive measures in respect of actions undermining or threatening the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on European Union, and in particular Article 29 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy,
Whereas:
On 17 March 2014, the Council adopted Decision 2014/145/CFSP(1).
The European Union does not recognise the illegal annexation of Crimea and Sevastopol by the Russian Federation.
Since the illegal annexation of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol, the Russian Federation has been making continuous efforts to subject those occupied territories to its rule. In particular, the Russian Federation uses the powers of its judiciary to oppress the opponents of its illegal annexation of Crimea and Sevastopol.
Several judges, prosecutors and security officers are responsible for enforcing Russian law in the illegally occupied Crimea and Sevastopol. Those persons have been taking biased decisions in multiple politically motivated criminal proceedings or prosecuting pro-Ukrainian activists or intensifying the oppression campaign against opponents of the illegal annexation.
The Council considers that eight individuals should be added to the list of persons, entities and bodies subject to restrictive measures set out in the Annex to Decision 2014/145/CFSP for their role in undermining or threatening the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine.
The Annex to Decision 2014/145/CFSP should therefore be amended accordingly,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
The persons listed in the Annex to this Decision shall be added to the list set out in the Annex to Decision 2014/145/CFSP.
Article 2
This Decision shall enter into force on the date of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
Done at Luxembourg, 11 October 2021.
