Additional listings were introduced following the 2006 and 2011 presidential elections. However, most of the measures were suspended by the Council in 2015 and later lifted, after Belarus released all of the political prisoners and in the context of improving EU-Belarus relations.\r\n\r\nIn light of the fraudulent presidential elections that took place in August 2020 and the brutal crackdown by Belarusian security forces on the peaceful protesters, democratic opposition and journalists, the EU introduced several packages of listings, targeting both natural and legal persons. Following the unlawful forced landing of a Ryanair flight in Minsk in May 2021, the Council subsequently prohibited any aircraft operated by Belarusian air carriers to take off from, land in or overfly the territory of the Union, as well as imposed further targeted economic sanctions including various trade and financial restrictions. \r\n\r\nIn view of the situation at the EU border with Belarus and in order to respond to the instrumentalization of human beings carried out by the Belarus regime for political purposes, the Council broadened the listing criteria on 15 November 2021.\r\n\r\nIn view of the Russian unprovoked invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and the involvement of Belarus in this aggression against Ukraine, since March 2022, the Council has adopted further sanctions. These include  restrictions related to the trade of potassium chloride ('potash'), wood and cement products as well as iron and steel products . It is also prohibited to export to Belarus dual-use goods and technology, firearms and goods and technology in the aviation, space and defence industry. The Council has also imposed a ban on any Belarusian road transport operators.\r\n\r\nFurthermore, financial measures imposed by the Council include restrictions on access to Union capital markets in relation to the Belarusian Government as well as Belarusian state-owned financial institutions and entities, a SWIFT ban for four Belarusian banks, putting limits on financial inflows from Belarus to the EU; a prohibition on providing insurance and reinsurance to the Belarusian Government and Belarusian public bodies and agencies, as well as certain prohibitions on the European Investment Bank in relation to projects in the public sector. \r\n\r\nThe close integration of the Russian and Belarusian economies has substantially facilitated the circumvention of existing sanctions. The EU therefore adopted a new set of sanctions against Belarus in June 2024, mirroring several of the measures already imposed on Russia to make EU sanctions more effective. The amendment notably extends the export ban on dual-use and advanced goods and technologies, includes further export and import restrictions, prohibition on provision on services and broadening of the road transport restrictions for Belarusian trailers or semi-trailers. The new package also introduce anti-circumvention measures, such as due diligence mechanisms and the so-called 'no re-export to Belarus clause'.\r\n\r\nDerogations to the restrictive measures are possible as well as exemptions for humanitarian purposes.","special":0,"expiration":1803769200,"amendment":1772146800,"programme":["BLR"],"has_lists":true,"has_members":true,"has_fsd_members":true,"under_construction":false,"adopted_by":{"data":{"id":1,"title":"EU"}},"country":{"data":{"code":"BY","title":"Belarus"}},"category":{"data":[]},"court_rulings":{"data":[]},"legal_acts":{"data":[{"id":4,"title":"Council Regulation concerning restrictive measures in view of the situation in Belarus and the involvement of Belarus in the Russian aggression against Ukraine","number":"27.02.2026 consolidated basic legal act - (EC) No 765\/2006","url":"http:\/\/data.europa.eu\/eli\/reg\/2006\/765\/2026-02-27","type":{"data":{"id":8,"title":"EC Council Regulation"}}},{"id":1764,"title":"Council Decision concerning restrictive measures in view of the situation in Belarus and the involvement of Belarus in the Russian aggression against Ukraine","number":"27.02.2026 consolidated basic legal act - 2012\/642\/CFSP","url":"http:\/\/data.europa.eu\/eli\/dec\/2012\/642\/2026-02-27","type":{"data":{"id":9,"title":"EC Council Decision"}}}]},"measures":{"data":[{"id":24,"description":"It is prohibited to export arms and related materiel to Belarus.

These measures target the DPRK's weapons of mass destruction and ballistic missile-related programmes.\r\n\r\nThe first set of restrictive measures were introduced with the UN Security Council Resolution 1718 (2006), adopted shortly after DPRK\u00b4s first nuclear test on 9 October 2006.

On 6 April and most recently on 16 October, the Council again introduced additional restrictive measures to further increase pressure on the DPRK to comply with its international obligations.

measures in view of the situation in the Democratic Republic of the Congo","acronym":null,"notes":"On 7 April 1993 the EU decided to impose an arms embargo on Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of Congo, the DRC). \r\n\r\nOn 28 July 2003, the UN Security Council adopted Resolution 1493 (2003) imposing an arms embargo against the DRC. On 18 April 2005, the UN Security Council adopted Resolution 1596 (2005) imposing also targeted restrictive measures. On 21 December 2005, the UN Security Council adopted Resolution 1649 (2005) extending restrictive measures to political and military leaders of foreign armed groups operating in the DRC who impede the disarmament and the voluntary repatriation or resettlement of combatants belonging to those groups, and to political and military leaders of Congolese militias receiving support from outside the DRC and in particular those operating in Ituri, who impede the participation of their combatants in disarmament, demobilisation and reintegration processes. On 31 July 2006, the UN Security Council adopted Resolution 1698 (2006) extending restrictive measures to political and military leaders recruiting or using children in armed conflict in violation of applicable international law and to individuals committing serious violations of international law involving the targeting of children in situations of armed conflict, including killing and maiming, sexual violence, abduction and forced displacement.\r\n\r\nOn 17 October 2016, the EU expressed its deep concern at the political situation in the DRC. It strongly condemned the acts of extreme violence that took place on 19 and 20 September 2016 in Kinshasa, noting that those acts further exacerbated the deadlock in the country due to the failure to call the presidential elections by the constitutional deadline of 20 December 2016. The EU stressed that, in order to create a climate conducive to dialogue and the holding of elections, the Government of the DRC must clearly commit to ensuring that human rights and the rule of law are respected and must cease all use of the justice system as a political tool. It also called on all stakeholders to reject the use of violence. The EU adopted targeted measures against those responsible for serious human rights violations, those who promote violence and those who try to obstruct a consensual and peaceful solution to the crisis which respects the aspiration of the people of the DRC to elect their representatives.\r\n\r\nDerogations and exemptions to the restrictive measures are possible, including the delivery of humanitarian aid.","special":0,"expiration":1797030000,"amendment":1765321200,"programme":["COD"],"has_lists":true,"has_members":false,"has_fsd_members":true,"under_construction":false,"adopted_by":{"data":{"id":3,"title":"UN and EU"}},"country":{"data":{"code":"CD","title":"Democratic Republic of the Congo"}},"category":{"data":[]},"court_rulings":{"data":[]},"legal_acts":{"data":[{"id":86,"title":"Resolution 1596 (2005)","number":"S\/RES\/1596 (2005)","url":"http:\/\/undocs.org\/S\/RES\/1596(2005)","type":{"data":{"id":7,"title":"UN Security Council Resolution"}}},{"id":104,"title":"Resolution 1649 (2005)","number":"S\/RES\/1649 (2005)","url":"http:\/\/undocs.org\/en\/S\/RES\/1649(2005)","type":{"data":{"id":7,"title":"UN Security Council Resolution"}}},{"id":105,"title":"Resolution 1493 (2003)","number":"S\/RES\/1493 (2003)","url":"https:\/\/undocs.org\/S\/RES\/1493(2003)","type":{"data":{"id":7,"title":"UN Security Council Resolution"}}},{"id":106,"title":"Resolution 1771 (2007)","number":"S\/RES\/1771 (2007)","url":"http:\/\/undocs.org\/en\/S\/RES\/1771(2007)","type":{"data":{"id":7,"title":"UN Security Council Resolution"}}},{"id":107,"title":"Resolution 1807 (2008)","number":"S\/RES\/1807 (2008)","url":"https:\/\/undocs.org\/S\/RES\/1807(2008)","type":{"data":{"id":7,"title":"UN Security Council Resolution"}}},{"id":108,"title":"Resolution 2078 (2012)","number":"S\/RES\/2078 (2012)","url":"https:\/\/undocs.org\/S\/RES\/2078(2012)","type":{"data":{"id":7,"title":"UN Security Council Resolution"}}},{"id":526,"title":"Resolution 1698 (2006)","number":"S\/RES\/1698 (2006)","url":"https:\/\/www.undocs.org\/S\/RES\/1698(2006)","type":{"data":{"id":7,"title":"UN Security Council Resolution"}}},{"id":570,"title":"Council Regulation concerning restrictive measures in view of the situation in the Democratic Republic of the Congo","number":"10.12.2025 consolidated basic legal act - (EC) No 1183\/2005","url":"http:\/\/data.europa.eu\/eli\/reg\/2005\/1183\/2025-12-10","type":{"data":{"id":8,"title":"EC Council Regulation"}}},{"id":571,"title":"Council Decision concerning restrictive measures in view of the situation in the Democratic Republic of the Congo","number":"10.12.2025 consolidated basic legal act - 2010\/788\/CFSP","url":"http:\/\/data.europa.eu\/eli\/dec\/2010\/788\/2025-12-10","type":{"data":{"id":1,"title":"EU Council Decision"}}},{"id":599,"title":"Resolution 2136 (2014)","number":"S\/RES\/2136 (2014)","url":"https:\/\/www.undocs.org\/S\/RES\/2136%20(2014)","type":{"data":{"id":7,"title":"UN Security Council Resolution"}}},{"id":600,"title":"Resolution 2198 (2015)","number":"S\/RES\/2198 (2015)","url":"https:\/\/www.undocs.org\/S\/RES\/2198%20(2015)","type":{"data":{"id":7,"title":"UN Security Council Resolution"}}},{"id":601,"title":"Resolution 2293 (2016)","number":"S\/RES\/2293 (2016)","url":"https:\/\/undocs.org\/en\/S\/RES\/2293(2016)","type":{"data":{"id":7,"title":"UN Security Council Resolution"}}},{"id":602,"title":"Resolution 2360 (2017)","number":"S\/RES\/2360 (2017)","url":"https:\/\/www.undocs.org\/S\/RES\/2360(2017)","type":{"data":{"id":7,"title":"UN Security Council Resolution"}}},{"id":603,"title":"Resolution 2478 (2019)","number":"S\/RES\/2478 (2019)","url":"https:\/\/undocs.org\/S\/RES\/2478(2019)","type":{"data":{"id":7,"title":"UN Security Council Resolution"}}},{"id":604,"title":"Resolution 2528 (2020)","number":"S\/RES\/2528 (2020)","url":"https:\/\/undocs.org\/S\/RES\/2528(2020)","type":{"data":{"id":7,"title":"UN Security Council Resolution"}}},{"id":813,"title":"Resolution 2582 (2021)","number":"S\/RES\/2582 (2021)","url":"https:\/\/undocs.org\/S\/RES\/2582(2021)","type":{"data":{"id":7,"title":"UN Security Council Resolution"}}},{"id":1466,"title":"Resolution 1533 (2004)","number":"S\/RES\/1533 (2004)","url":"https:\/\/documents.un.org\/doc\/undoc\/gen\/n04\/268\/75\/pdf\/n0426875.pdf","type":{"data":{"id":7,"title":"UN Security Council Resolution"}}},{"id":1467,"title":"Resolution 2641 (2022)","number":"S\/RES\/2641 (2022)","url":"https:\/\/documents.un.org\/doc\/undoc\/gen\/n22\/407\/66\/pdf\/n2240766.pdf","type":{"data":{"id":7,"title":"UN Security Council Resolution"}}}]},"measures":{"data":[{"id":38,"description":"It is prohibited to export arms and related materiel to all non-governmental entities and individuals operating in the territory of the DRC.

These resolutions were accompanied by restrictive measures (sanctions), which the EU also transposed. In addition, the EU reinforced the UN measures with various economic and financial sanctions. \r\n\r\nOn 14 July 2015 Iran and the \u2018'E3\/EU3\u2019 agreed on a Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPoA) (see guidelines for a link to the JCPoA Information Note for more information). Following  the JCPoA, on Implementation Day (16 January 2016), the EU lifted all its nuclear-related economic and financial sanctions concerning Iran. Consequently, the following activities, including associated services, are again allowed as of Implementation Day: financial, banking and insurance measures; trade in the oil, gas and petrochemical sectors; activity in the shipping, shipbuilding and transport sectors. Moreover, several persons, entities and bodies were delisted and are therefore no longer subject to asset freezes, prohibitions to make funds available and visa bans.    The JCPoA foresaw that in case 8 years after adoption day Iran had fulfilled its commitments, the EU would lift its sanctions. However,  on Transition Day , (18 October 2023), considering Iran\u2019s non-compliance with its JCPoA commitments, the Council decided to maintain the  EU autonomous measures under the regime as well as maintain on the sanctions list the individuals and entities initially designated by the UN for involvement in nuclear or ballistic missiles activities or affiliated to the Islamic Revolutionary guard Corps (IRGC).\r\n\r\nThus, a number of measures and restrictions remain in place even after Transition Day. These concern inter alia the arms embargo, restrictive measures related to missile technology, restrictions on certain nuclear-related transfers and activities, and provisions concerning certain metals and software which are subject to an authorisation regime.\r\n\r\nOn 29 September 2025, following the UN Security Council\u2019s decision not to extend the lifting of sanctions on Iran, the Council has decided to reinstate several restrictive measures against Iran, reversing the suspensions implemented under the JCPoA. The reinstated measures include UN sanctions from 2006, integrated into EU law, and additional EU autonomous measures.\r\n\r\nIn addition, the sanctions imposed by the EU in view of the human rights situation in Iran, support for terrorism and other grounds (e.g. the war in Syria, the Iran \u201cdrones\u201d regime) are not part of the JCPoA and remain in place to this day.","special":0,"expiration":null,"amendment":1759096800,"programme":["IRN"],"has_lists":true,"has_members":false,"has_fsd_members":true,"under_construction":false,"adopted_by":{"data":{"id":3,"title":"UN and EU"}},"country":{"data":{"code":"IR","title":"Iran"}},"category":{"data":[]},"court_rulings":{"data":[]},"legal_acts":{"data":[{"id":1767,"title":"Council Decision concerning restrictive measures against Iran and repealing Common Position 2007\/140\/CFSP","number":"30.09.2025 consolidated basic legal act - 2010\/413\/CFSP","url":"http:\/\/data.europa.eu\/eli\/dec\/2010\/413\/2025-09-30","type":{"data":{"id":9,"title":"EC Council Decision"}}},{"id":1768,"title":"Council Regulation concerning restrictive measures against Iran and repealing Regulation No 961\/2010","number":"30.09.2025 consolidated basic legal act - (EU) No 267\/2012","url":"http:\/\/data.europa.eu\/eli\/reg\/2012\/267\/2025-09-30","type":{"data":{"id":8,"title":"EC Council Regulation"}}}]},"measures":{"data":[{"id":169,"description":"A prohibition to sell, supply, or transfer, directly or indirectly, or procure arms and related materiel of all types, including weapons and ammunition, military vehicles and equipment, paramilitary equipment and spare parts for such arms and related materiel; and the provision of associated services continues to apply after Implementation Day.

The first packages adopted by the EU included measures such as banning the export of dual-use and defence-related goods, blocking public financing for trade or investment with Russia, restricting oil refining-related exports, imposing aviation sector restrictions, and prohibiting various financial interactions and transactions with Russia. Additionally, they involved banning Russia from the SWIFT system, prohibiting the transmission and distribution of certain Russian State-owned information outlets, and limiting the export of maritime navigation goods and radio communication technology. \r\n\r\nIn March and April 2022 further measures were introduced, including a full prohibition on transactions with certain Russian State-owned enterprises and four key Russian banks, a ban on imports of iron and steel products, export of luxury goods, a coal ban, a port access ban and a ban on any Russian and Belarusian road transport of sanctioned goods.\r\n\r\nIn June and July 2022, in response to Russia\u2019s ongoing military efforts, the Council imposed oil import restrictions, oil transport services restrictions, including transport to third countries, additional financial and business services and export measures, a broadcasting suspension, and a ban on the import of Russian gold.\r\n\r\nIn order to curb Russia\u2019s revenues to finance its war of aggression and to deprive its military and industrial complex of key components, the Council continued to expand the measures in 2022, including with new export and import restrictions and additional bans for Russian banks and media outlets.\r\n\r\nOn 3 December 2022, the Council set an oil price cap for crude oil, petroleum oils and oils obtained from bituminous minerals from Russia. Following this, on 4 February 2023, the Council set two price caps for petroleum products from Russia.\r\n\r\nDuring 2023 the Council imposed further trade, transport and energy measures, such as additional export restrictions on sensitive dual-use goods and advanced technologies and measures to facilitate divestment from Russia by EU operators. The Council also adopted several measures to tackle the circumvention of sanctions.\r\n\r\nOn 18 December 2023, the Council imposed a new import ban on Russian diamonds and on raw materials for steel production, processed aluminium products and other metal goods. Moreover, it introduced stricter energy measures and stronger anti-circumvention measures, including an obligation for operators to contractually prohibit the re-export of certain sensitive goods to Russia. \r\n\r\nThe package of measures adopted on 23 February 2024 enhanced the EU\u2019s actions to stop Russia from acquiring Western sensitive technologies for Russian military.\r\nDerogations and exemptions to the restrictive measures are possible, including the delivery of humanitarian aid.\r\n\r\nThe latest package was adopted on October 23, 2025, and introduced new restrictions in the areas of trade, finance, energy, and other sectors.","special":0,"expiration":1785448800,"amendment":1766358000,"programme":[],"has_lists":true,"has_members":true,"has_fsd_members":false,"under_construction":false,"adopted_by":{"data":{"id":1,"title":"EU"}},"country":{"data":{"code":"RU","title":"Russia"}},"category":{"data":[]},"court_rulings":{"data":[]},"legal_acts":{"data":[{"id":48,"title":"Council Decision concerning restrictive measures in view of Russia's actions destabilising the situation in Ukraine","number":"24.12.2025 consolidated basic legal act - (CFSP) 2014\/512","url":"http:\/\/data.europa.eu\/eli\/dec\/2014\/512\/2025-12-24","type":{"data":{"id":1,"title":"EU Council Decision"}}},{"id":49,"title":"Council Regulation concerning restrictive measures in view of Russia's actions destabilising the situation in Ukraine","number":"16.01.2026 consolidated basic legal act - (EU) No 833\/2014","url":"http:\/\/data.europa.eu\/eli\/reg\/2014\/833\/2026-01-16","type":{"data":{"id":2,"title":"EU Council Regulation"}}}]},"measures":{"data":[{"id":64,"description":"It is prohibited to export arms and related materiel to Russia.

On 12 December 2014, the Council of the EU further imposed a prohibition on export of items that were used by the Assad regime's air force which undertakes indiscriminate air attacks against the civilian population. \r\n\r\nSince 2014, in view of the deteriorating situation in Syria, and the widespread and systematic violations of human rights and international humanitarian law, including the use of chemical weapons against the civilian population, the Council of the EU has repeatedly added names to the lists of persons and entities who are subject to restrictive measures.  \r\n\r\nThe listed persons and entities are mainly those who share responsibility for the Syrian regime's violent repression against the civilian population; provide support to the Syrian regime and the Syrian army; provide benefit from the Syrian regime; assist in the production and development of chemical weapons for the Syrian regime; organize chemical weapons attacks; are senior officers of the Syrian Armed Forces and the Syrian security and intelligence services; and are members of Syrian regime-affiliated militias. \r\n\r\nOn 3 April 2017, the Council of the EU stated in its EU strategy on Syria that the EU would continue to consider further restrictive measures targeting Syrian individuals and entities supporting the regime as long as the repression continues. The restrictive measures contain derogations and exemptions, for instance for the delivery of humanitarian aid.\r\n\r\nIn response to the political transition in Syria, the Council of the EU decided to suspend a number of restrictive measures in key areas of energy, transport and finance on 24 February 2025. This decision is part of the EU\u2019s efforts to support an inclusive political transition in Syria, and its swift economic recovery, reconstruction, and stabilisation. The Council is closely monitoring the situation and will assess whether further economic sanctions could be suspended and whether the suspensions remain appropriate. Listings related to the Al-Assad regime, the chemical weapons sector and illicit drug trade as well as a number of sectoral measures, such as on arms trade, dual-use goods, equipment for internal repression, software for interception and surveillance, and the import\/export of Syrian cultural heritage goods remain in place.","special":0,"expiration":1780264800,"amendment":1758664800,"programme":["SYR"],"has_lists":true,"has_members":false,"has_fsd_members":true,"under_construction":false,"adopted_by":{"data":{"id":1,"title":"EU"}},"country":{"data":{"code":"SY","title":"Syria"}},"category":{"data":[]},"court_rulings":{"data":[]},"legal_acts":{"data":[{"id":553,"title":"Council Decision concerning restrictive measures against Syria","number":"24.9.2025 consolidated basic legal act - 2013\/255\/CFSP","url":"http:\/\/data.europa.eu\/eli\/dec\/2013\/255\/2025-09-24","type":{"data":{"id":1,"title":"EU Council Decision"}}},{"id":584,"title":"Council Regulation concerning restrictive measures in view of the situation in Syria","number":"24.9.2025 consolidated basic legal act - (EU) No 36\/2012","url":"http:\/\/data.europa.eu\/eli\/reg\/2012\/36\/2025-09-24","type":{"data":{"id":2,"title":"EU Council Regulation"}}}]},"measures":{"data":[{"id":73,"description":"It is prohibited to import arms and related material from Syria.

On 16 January 2002, the measures were extended to cover the Al-Qaida organization and other individuals, groups, undertakings and entities associated with them (see Resolution 1390 (2002)).\r\n\r\nIn 2011, the UN Security Council decided to split the restrictive measures in relation to the Taliban and those in relation to Al-Qaida into separate regimes. Measures in relation to Al-Qaida were gathered in Resolution 1989 (2011). The measures in relation to the Taliban are described under the Afghanistan restrictive measures regime on the EU Sanctions Map.\r\n\r\nOn 17 December 2015, the UN Security Council adopted Resolution 2253 (2015) expanding the scope of the measures to individuals, groups, undertakings or entities associated with the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (\u2018ISIL (Da'esh)\u2019), responsible for ongoing and multiple criminal terrorist acts aimed at causing the deaths of innocent civilians and other victims, destruction of property and greatly undermining stability.\r\n\r\nAs of 20 September 2016, the Council of the EU can apply restrictive measures autonomously to persons and entities associated with ISIL\/Da'esh and Al-Qaida. Before that, the restrictive measures could be applied only to those listed by the UN Security Council.

The decision was made after the Heads of State or Government of the European Union's Member States on 6 March 2014 strongly condemned the unprovoked violation of Ukrainian sovereignty and territorial integrity by the Russian Federation and called on the Russian Federation to immediately withdraw its armed forces to the areas of their permanent stationing. They called on the Russian Federation to enable immediate access for international monitors. The Heads of State or Government considered that the decision by the Supreme Council of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea to hold a referendum on the future status of the territory is contrary to the Ukrainian Constitution and therefore illegal. Over time, the list of persons and entities subject to restrictive measures has been expanded by the EU Council.\r\n\r\nOn 22 February 2022, the EU strongly condemned the decision of the President of the Russian Federation on 21 February 2022 to recognize the non-government controlled areas of Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts of Ukraine as independent entities and the ensuing decision to send Russian troops into these areas. The EU considers that this as an illegal act further undermining Ukraine\u2019s sovereignty and independence and is a severe breach of international law and international agreements. In view of the situation, on 23 February 2022, the Council of the EU expanded the list of persons and entities subject to the restrictive measures consisting of asset freezes and travel restrictions. \r\n\r\nOn 24 February 2022, the President of the Russian Federation announced a military operation in Ukraine and Russian armed forces began an attack on Ukraine. The EU strongly condemned the unprovoked invasion of Ukraine by armed forces of the Russian Federation and the involvement of Belarus in this aggression against Ukraine. In view of the gravity of the situation, on 25 February 2022, the Council broadened the listing criteria to cover persons and entities supporting  and benefiting from the Government of the Russian Federation as well as persons and entities providing a substantial source of revenue to it. The Council has since expanded the list of persons and entities subject to restrictive measures.\r\n\r\nDerogations and exemptions to the restrictive measures are possible, including the delivery of humanitarian aid.","special":0,"expiration":1789423200,"amendment":1773615600,"programme":["UKR"],"has_lists":true,"has_members":false,"has_fsd_members":true,"under_construction":false,"adopted_by":{"data":{"id":1,"title":"EU"}},"country":{"data":{"code":"UA","title":"Ukraine"}},"category":{"data":[]},"court_rulings":{"data":[]},"legal_acts":{"data":[{"id":566,"title":"Council Decision concerning restrictive measures in respect of actions undermining or threatening the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine","number":"16.03.2026 consolidated basic legal act - 2014\/145\/CFSP","url":"http:\/\/data.europa.eu\/eli\/dec\/2014\/145(1)\/2026-03-16","type":{"data":{"id":1,"title":"EU Council Decision"}}},{"id":567,"title":"Council Regulation concerning restrictive measures in respect of actions undermining or threatening the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine","number":"16.03.2026 consolidated legal act - (EU) No 269\/2014","url":"http:\/\/data.europa.eu\/eli\/reg\/2014\/269\/2026-03-16","type":{"data":{"id":2,"title":"EU Council Regulation"}}}]},"measures":{"data":[{"id":22,"description":"All assets of the listed persons and entities should be frozen.

The European Council considered that certain economic, trade and financial restrictions regarding Crimea should be proposed for rapid implementation. \r\n\r\nOn 27 March 2014, the UN General Assembly adopted Resolution 68\/262 on the territorial integrity of Ukraine, affirming its commitment to the sovereignty, political independence, unity and territorial integrity of Ukraine within its internationally recognised borders, underscoring the invalidity of the referendum held in Crimea on 16 March, and calling upon all States not to recognise any alterations to the status of Crimea.\r\n\r\nOn 23 June 2014, the Council of the EU considered that the import into the EU of goods originating in Crimea or Sevastopol should be prohibited, with the exception of goods originating in Crimea or Sevastopol having been granted a certificate of origin by the Government of Ukraine. On 30 July 2014, the Council of the EU adopted additional measures restricting trade with and investment in Crimea. On 18 December 2014, the Council further restricted investment in Crimea.

The Council of the EU expressed serious concern about legislation in Zimbabwe which seriously infringed on the right to freedom of speech, assembly and association and the legislation to regulate the media. The Government of Zimbabwe continued to engage in serious violations of human rights and of the freedom of opinion, of association and of peaceful assembly. Thus the Council of the EU imposed embargo on all arms and military equipment on the EU military list as well as other equipment which might be used for internal repression, travel restrictions and asset freeze.\r\n\r\nIn 2008, the Council of the EU strengthened the restrictive measures in relation to the violence organised and committed by the Zimbabwean authorities during the presidential election campaign in 2008, which turned the election into a denial of democracy.\r\n\r\nOn 23 July 2012 and 18 February 2013, the Council of the EU concluded that a peaceful and credible constitutional referendum in Zimbabwe would represent an important milestone in the preparation of democratic elections justifying an immediate suspension of the majority of all remaining Union targeted restrictive measures against individuals and entities. In view of the outcome of the Zimbabwean constitutional referendum of 16 March 2013, the Council of the EU decided to suspend the travel ban and asset freeze applying to the majority of the individuals and entities on the list. Over the years, the Council subsequently renewed and adjusted the restrictive measures.\r\n\r\nOn 7 February 2026, the Council decided that in view of the situation in Zimbabwe, the restrictive measures should be limited to an arms embargo on all arms and military equipment on the EU military list as well as other equipment which might be used for internal repression and decided to remove the provisions related to the travel ban and asset freeze. The Council also decided that the title of that Decision should be amended to reflect the fact that the framework includes only an arms embargo.","special":0,"expiration":1803078000,"amendment":1771282800,"programme":[],"has_lists":true,"has_members":false,"has_fsd_members":false,"under_construction":false,"adopted_by":{"data":{"id":1,"title":"EU"}},"country":{"data":{"code":"ZW","title":"Zimbabwe"}},"category":{"data":[]},"court_rulings":{"data":[]},"legal_acts":{"data":[{"id":550,"title":"Council Decision concerning restrictive measures in view of the situation in Zimbabwe","number":"19.02.2026 consolidated basic legal act - 2011\/101\/CFSP","url":"https:\/\/eur-lex.europa.eu\/legal-content\/EN\/TXT\/?uri=CELEX%3A02011D0101-20260219","type":{"data":{"id":1,"title":"EU Council Decision"}}},{"id":551,"title":"Council Regulation concerning restrictive measures in view of the situation in Zimbabwe","number":"19.02.2026 consolidated basic legal act - (EC) No 314\/2004","url":"http:\/\/data.europa.eu\/eli\/reg\/2004\/314\/2026-02-19","type":{"data":{"id":2,"title":"EU Council Regulation"}}}]},"measures":{"data":[{"id":49,"description":"It is prohibited to export arms and related materiel to Zimbabwe.
