Details
I have signed new decisions on Ukraine's sanctions. And these are special decisions now. Russia is trying to prolong the war, expanding its attempts to justify aggression and "normalize" the occupation of Ukrainian territories. Also, a demonstrative political decision by Russia to apply "sanctions" against Ukrainian officials, including the Prime Minister of Ukraine, has recently appeared. Such behavior by Russia deserves much greater pressure from the world and an expansion of the scope of this pressure – both against all sources and schemes of financing the Russian war machine, and against every person who spreads propaganda and complicates decision-making aimed at achieving true peace. We will submit our proposals for new sanctions to the relevant partners
– wrote Zelenskyy.
According to him, today's Ukrainian sanction decisions include individuals working in Putin's government structures and involved in looting in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine, one of his "wallets," a Russian military intelligence functionary, and one of the collaborators.
"We are also starting work on Russian publishing houses that work to justify aggression and spread Russian propaganda in the world. Everything in Russia that is oriented towards war must be blocked," Zelenskyy added.
Thus, according to decree No. 835/2025, sanctions were imposed against five legal entities, including:
- "Book World"; "Veche Publishing House";
- "Tsentrpoligraf Publishing House";
- "Yauza Publishing House";
- "Peter Publishing House".
Also, by decree No. 834/2025, sanctions were imposed against 8 individuals, including:
- Kirill Dmitriev – Putin's special representative;
- Oleksiy Komkov – headed the 5th FSB service, which deals with counterintelligence in CIS countries;
- Oksana Lut – Minister of Agriculture of the Russian Federation;
- Oleksandr Tupytskyi – former head of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine.
Sanctions include asset blocking, deprivation of state awards of Ukraine, restrictions on trade operations, etc.
