Ukraine criticized the Council of the European Union's decision to remove Mikhail Fridman from its sanctions list. An adviser to President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that the move was "very strange" because Russia continues the war and ties to the Kremlin have not disappeared. Kyiv warned that this could set a precedent for weakening the bloc's pressure on Moscow.
