Greece and Austria did not support the approval of the 21st package of EU sanctions against Russia

According to the Financial Times, Athens opposed the ban on the transportation of Russian LNG to third countries, as the restrictions may affect the shipping company Dynagas, associated with businessman George Prokopiou and servicing the Yamal LNG project, among others.

 

According to Politico, the EU countries have been unable to reach a unified position for the third day. Austria, in turn, links support for sanctions to the issue of compensation for Raiffeisen Bank. The head of European diplomacy, Kaya Kallas, acknowledged the lack of consensus and said that if negotiations fail, Brussels will have to look for a “plan B.”
