UKRAINE AND SYRIA: LINKED AMENDMENTS OF EU SANCTIONS

EU Regulation 2022/1273/EU amends a 2014 EU Regulation and involves derogations from the asset freeze and the prohibition to make funds and economic resources available for the orderly wind-down of operations, including correspondent banking relations, with 1 designated bank.

Meanwhile, EU Regulation 2022/1274/EU adds 6 individuals and 1 entity involved in the recruitment of Syrian mercenaries to fight in Ukraine alongside Russian troops to the Russian sanctions lists.

EU Regulation 2022/1275/EU is also connected, adding 4 persons and 1 entity to the Syrian sanctions lists, again in connection to the support that the Syrian regime provides to the Russian Federation’s unprovoked and unjustified military aggression against Ukraine.
