12/05/23 (Agence Europe) – On Wednesday 10 May, Serbian Prime Minister Ana Brnabić, assured the international special envoy for the implementation of EU sanctions, David O’Sullivan, in a meeting, that Serbia “is not and will not be a platform” for circumventing the measures taken against Russia. “When it comes to the war in Ukraine, Serbia is not value neutral”, she said. Adding: “We have clearly decided our position on the violation of Ukraine’s territorial integrity”. At the end of 2022, the Commission appointed O’Sullivan to this post to work with third countries to prevent Russia from circumventing the sanctions that have been imposed on it since the start of its war against Ukraine (see EUROPE 13083/30). The EU is currently negotiating an eleventh package of specific measures to combat the abuse of its sanctions against Russia. (TM)
