EU SANCTIONS: GUIDANCE NOTE ON THE PROVISION OF HUMANITARIAN AID TO FIGHT THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC

On 11 May, the EU published a Notice containing guidance which says that EU sanctions are not meant to stand in the way nor impede the supply of humanitarian aid, including medical activities.  After outlining the general principles involved, the Notice sets out to give practical guidance, in Q&A form, on compliance with EU sanctions when providing humanitarian aid, in particular medical assistance, to fight the COVID-19 pandemic.
