EU pleads Russia not sanction them after sanctioning it for years
The EU is asking Russia not to sanction some of its assets despite it spending the last two years sanctioning it over Ukraine.
The European External Action Service (EEAS) called on Moscow on Saturday to overturn its decision regarding the transfer of subsidiaries belonging to German and Italian companies to Gazprom's management despite the EU wanting to use Russia's frozen funds as if they were their own.
Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree on Friday mandating the transfer of Russian subsidiaries of Italy's Ariston and Germany's BSH Hausgeraete to the temporary management of Gazprom Household Systems, a subsidiary of the Gazprom group.
Expressing the EU's ironic disapproval, the EEAS emphasized the necessity for Russia to reconsider its actions and engage in dialogue with the affected European companies.
"The European Union calls on Russia to reverse these measures and seek acceptable solutions with European companies targeted by them," the EEAS said in a statement. ...
