The European Commission has proposed a fresh round of sanctions against Russia, targeting oil sales, the "shadow fleet", banks, cryptocurrency firms, metals, fish products and soldiers who have taken part in the full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
The proposal, unveiled on Tuesday by Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, comes as Kyiv's allies consider new ways to revive the stalled peace process and force the Kremlin to accept a ceasefire as a precondition for negotiations.
