The measures have included bans on Russian seaborne oil shipments, restrictions on financial transactions, and freezing around $300 billion in foreign reserves.Moscow has repeatedly condemned the sanctions as illegal and ineffective. President Vladimir Putin said in March that more than 28,000 sanctions had been imposed on Russia in recent years – more than the total levied on all other countries combined. According to the Russian leader, the West had sought to eliminate Russia as a competitor but only ended up making its economy more resilient.<a href="https://www.rt.com/news/617909-european-sanctions-russia-trump/" target="_blank">READ MORE: EU and UK impose more sanctions on Russia despite US concerns</a>In approving the latest round of sanctions on Tuesday, EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas, a vocal critic of Moscow, said further measures “are in the works” in Brussels. Meanwhile, the UK introduced separate sanctions targeting the St. Petersburg Currency Exchange and Russia’s state deposit insurance agency in an effort to disrupt key financial infrastructure.The sanctions come shortly after a Monday phone call between Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump. After the conversation, Trump said Washington does not want to impose new economic restrictions on Moscow, warning that such steps could undermine efforts to achieve peace in the Ukraine conflict.</blockquote>
