According to Bits.media, EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Kaja Kallas stated that the EU plans to restrict 11 cryptocurrency platforms in the 21st round of sanctions, claiming that these platforms assist Russian authorities and businesses in evading international sanctions. The new measures will also tighten the ban on providing cryptocurrency-related services to third countries, expand the sanctions list, and prohibit transactions with these 11 cryptocurrency platforms, although the names of the platforms have not been disclosed.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen stated that the new sanctions aim to increase pressure on the structures that help Russia maintain international financial channels. In addition, the new sanctions will involve about 90 Russian banks, of which 31 may face a complete trading ban. The EU has already imposed sanctions on cryptocurrency transfer and exchange service providers registered in Russia in the 20th round of sanctions, which took effect on May 24.
