The European Commission will not add any new import bans in its next package of sanctions on Russia, EU diplomats said, as a 13th package proposal takes its final shape, Paralel.Az reports citing Reuters.

The Commission and European Union member states want to quickly pass a new set of measures to mark the second anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24.

Despite calls from some EU countries to ban more Russian exports like aluminium, the Commission will propose a package it hopes will cause minimal debate among member states so it is passed quickly.

Member states need to vote unanimously to adopt new sanctions.

"There will be hundreds of listings... entities and individuals. No big (company) names," one of the diplomats said.

The diplomat said the Commission proposal - which could arrive as early as this week - would also expand the list of Russian companies that EU firms cannot sell dual-use goods to.

Dual-use goods are those items that can serve a purpose in ordinary life as well as on the battlefield to make weapons such as drones.
