European Commission to regard sanctions circumvention as a crime
European Commission proposes to criminalize circumvention of sanctions
The European Commission has officially proposed to treat the circumvention of the imposed sanctions as a crime at the level of the European Union, the document says.
The updated list of EU criminal offenses may include the following provisions:
- participation in activities aimed at direct or indirect circumvention of restrictive measures, including by hiding assets;
- Refusal to freeze funds owned or controlled by a particular individual or entity;
- import or export of goods subject to trade bans.
It is reported that this measure "will facilitate the investigation, prosecution and punishment of such violations in all member states."
