💬🇪🇺 works by unanimity — and that’s getting harder. We already have 18 sanction packages, and talks on the 19th continue.
Unanimity is also needed for talks with 🇺🇦 and for releasing funds from the European Peace Facility.

We know who’s blocking it.

💬 Russian airstrikes are another escalation — meant to intimidate before winter

Attacks on civilian targets are war crimes.
Putin has been charged with abducting 🇺🇦children, yet he continues his attacks.

Response: more sanctions, more support for 🇺🇦
