Source: EU not to change blacklist of Russian officials

BRUSSELS, Mar 3 (PRIME) -- The E.U. will unlikely make any amendments to the blacklist of Russian and Ukrainian officials if it prolongs the sanctions against them, a European source told PRIME late Wednesday.

“No changes are expected in the list. Some participants can be excluded because they are no longer alive,” the source said on a condition of anonymity.

The current set of sanctions against Russian individuals will remain in force until March 15, while economic sanctions will last at least until July 31.
