New EU Sanctions on Russia to Target Sberbank, Commission Head Tells Paper
KONTAN.CO.ID - FRANKFURT. The European Union's forthcoming sanctions on Russia will target banks, in particular Sberbank as well as oil. The head of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen told a German newspaper.
Bild am Sonntag, in an interview published on Sunday, asked her to name the key points of a planned sixth round of sanctions. "We are looking further at the banking sector, especially Sberbank, which accounts for 37% of the Russian banking sector. And, of course, there are energy issues," she said.
