Russian deputy minister blacklisted in new EU sanctions over Siemens turbines to Crimea
The European Union on Friday imposed sanctions on three more Russians, including Deputy Energy Minister Andrei Cherezov, and three Russian companies over the delivery of Siemens’ turbines to Moscow-annexed Crimea. Moscow criticized the EU’s decision as an unfriendly and groundless act and said it reserved the right to take retaliatory steps. The EU first introduced sanctions on Russia after the 2014 military takeover of the Black Sea peninsula from Kiev, and stepped them up repeatedly as Moscow then backed separatist unrest in the east of Ukraine.
