The U.S. has proposed a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine, involving the easing of sanctions upon a sustained ceasefire. Concurrently, the European Union is preparing for potential new sanctions and legal measures if Hungary blocks future sanctions against Russia. In Ukraine, President Zelenskyy has introduced sanctions targeting Russian propagandists and military manufacturers. Meanwhile, voices across Europe, including those of French President Macron, emphasize that sanction relief is contingent on Russia's withdrawal from Ukrainian territories. With the potential for intensified sanctions from the U.S., international relations continue to be defined by the strategic use of sanctions as tools of diplomacy and conflict resolution.

The European Union has continually extended and intensified sanctions against Russia, with particular emphasis on reducing its military capabilities. This stance is part of coordinated international efforts to curb aggression and ensure regional stability and peace in Ukraine.

Will France agree to ease sanctions against Russia?
