Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said that by the end of the year Ukraine will adopt several more sanctions decisions against Russian entities as well as individuals who facilitate Russia's aggression. The sanctions lists will include not only Russian citizens but also nationals of other countries, including China.

According to Ukrinform, the head of state said this in a post on Telegram.

"We are preparing several more sanction decisions against Russian entities and those who support Russian aggression by the end of this year. There will be at least one package of sanctions targeting those working with the Russian military-industrial complex, which includes not only individuals from Russia, but also, in particular, from China," Zelensky said.

According to him, sanctions measures are also being prepared against those who justify Russian aggression and promote Russian influence through mass culture, as well as against athletes who use their sports careers and public attention to sports to glorify Russian aggression.

"We are working with European institutions on the details of the 20th EU sanctions package, with the primary objective of expanding European sanction pressure on Putin's energy assets and the oligarchs connected to him. Canada is drafting a new sanctions package as well – thank you for this work. Ukraine will also continue the processes of synchronizing sanctions – the relevant NSDC decisions and decrees will follow soon," Zelensky said.

On October 31, Zelensky imposed additional sanctions against those involved in Russia's military production and propaganda.
