The government of Kosovo adopted Friday sanctions against Russia.

The decision comes at a moment when Russia is quickly advancing into Ukrainian soil.

Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti said his country will align with the decisions taken previously by the United States and the European Union in their joint response against Russian aggression in Ukraine.

“The Russian army is what through this aggression sent waves across Europe and made it rethink of the design of international security”, Kurti said.

Kosovo minister of foreign affairs Donika Gërvalla maintained that the Russian attack is one ‘of the worst and most dangerous against European and international security in the last decade’.

But what are the sanctions imposed by Kosovo?

  • Freezing the bank assets of financial institutions and individuals
  • Prohibiting their access to financial markets
  • Restrictive measures targeting important enterprises of the Russian elite and other political actors involved in the decision to invade Ukraine.

Among other states that sanctioned Russia are the US, EU, and the UK.
