Ukraine urges EU to close Russia, Belarus borders to enforce sanctions

Ukraine calls on the European Union to close land, sea and air connections with Russia and Belarus to tighten a sanctions package the West imposed over Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.

The infrastructure ministry says in a statement it is calling on the bloc to “completely block land and sea connections with Russia and Belarus,” as part of proposals to “increase economic pressure” on the countries.
