EU Sanctions Target Russian Oil Exports via Georgia, Crypto Evasion, and Shadow Fleet

The EU has escalated sanctions against Russia, specifically targeting oil exports via Georgian ports, cryptocurrency-based evasion, and Russia's 'shadow fleet'. While the EU has confirmed deferred sanctions on a Georgian refinery processing Russian crude, allegations of widespread circumvention via Georgian ports remain subject to verification. These measures aim to close existing loopholes and tighten economic pressure on Russia.
