[EU Imposes Sanctions on 41 Ships in Russia's "Shadow Fleet"] On December 18, the European Council issued a statement announcing sanctions on 41 ships in Russia's "shadow fleet." These ships, now on the sanctions list, will be barred from entering any EU ports, bringing the total number of sanctioned vessels to nearly 600. The statement noted that this move is closely related to other recent EU actions targeting the "shadow fleet," and that the EU will continue to increase pressure on Russia and its "shadow fleet" value chain, reserving the right to take further sanctions.
