The European Union is set to impose its first sanctions targeting Russia for disinformation and hybrid activities.
The proposed measures target more than a dozen individuals and three entities, including Russian intelligence officers and media entrepreneurs, according to Bloomberg. The sanctions aim to counter destabilizing operations globally.
. . .
The proposals follow EU ambassadors’ approval of a 15th sanctions package against Russia, targeting its “shadow fleet” of aging tankers used to bypass oil export restrictions, the Hungarian Presidency of the EU Council announced on Dec. 11.

Too little, too late as usual.
Yeah, 10 years ago would have been better!
But is better late than never!, glad someone is finally doing something.
