    COUNCIL DECISION (CFSP) 2023/1218

    of 23 June 2023

    amending Decision 2014/145/CFSP concerning restrictive measures in respect of actions undermining or threatening the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine

    THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

    Having regard to the Treaty on European Union, and in particular Article 29 thereof,

    Having regard to the proposal from the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy,

    Whereas:

    (1)

    On 17 March 2014, the Council adopted Decision 2014/145/CFSP (1).

    (2)

    The Union remains unwavering in its support for Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.

    (3)

    In its conclusions of 23 March 2023, the European Council reiterated its resolute condemnation of Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine, which constitutes a manifest violation of the Charter of the United Nations. The European Council also reiterated that the Union remains committed to maintaining and increasing collective pressure on Russia, including through possible further restrictive measures. The European Council also underlined the importance and urgency of stepping up efforts to ensure the effective implementation of sanctions at European and national level and its firm commitment to effectively preventing and countering their circumvention in and by third countries. It invited the Council and the Commission to strengthen all necessary enforcement instruments and to develop, together with Member States, a fully coordinated approach to that effect.

    (4)

    The Council considers that circumventing the restrictive measures adopted by the Union in response to Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine, or otherwise significantly frustrating such restrictive measures by third country operators not bound by those measures in such a way as to contribute to Russia’s capacity to wage war, may undermine the purpose and effectiveness of those measures. Indications of cases of frustrating the Union’s restrictive measures could include, inter alia, the fact that the main activity of a third country operator consists of purchasing restricted goods in the Union that reach Russia, the involvement of Russian persons or entities at any stage, the recent creation of a company for purposes related to restricted goods reaching Russia, or a drastic increase in the turnover of a third country operator involved in such activities.

    (5)

    The Council has also assessed that information warfare constitutes a key means by which Russia implements its war of aggression against Ukraine and commits gross violations of international law and the principles of the Charter of the United Nations. Companies in the IT sector that provide critical technology and software to the Russian intelligence community hold a licence from the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation (FSB), which enables them to work with information at the Russian security level of ‘state secret’. Additionally, such companies often hold a particular ‘weapons and military equipment’ license administered by the Russian Ministry of Industry and Trade. The Council therefore considers that the criteria for designation should be extended in order to cover legal persons, entities, or bodies operating in the Russian IT sector that hold a license administered by the FSB Center for Licensing, Certification, and Protection of State Secrets or a ‘weapons and military equipment’ license administered by the Russian Ministry of Industry and Trade.

    (6)

    Moreover, in view of the gravity of the situation, the Council considers that 71 persons and 33 entities responsible for actions undermining or threatening the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine should be added to the list of persons, entities and bodies subject to restrictive measures set out in the Annex to Decision 2014/145/CFSP.

    (7)

    It is appropriate to extend to two newly listed financial institutions a derogation from the asset freeze and from the prohibition on making funds and economic resources available that was applicable to previously-listed financial institutions pursuant to Decision 2014/145/CFSP. It is also appropriate to introduce a further derogation from the asset freeze and the prohibition on making funds and economic resources available to certain listed entities to allow for divestment from Russian companies and the disposal of certain types of securities held with specified listed entities. It is also appropriate to introduce a derogation allowing for the setting-up, certification or evaluation of a firewall that removes the control exercised by a listed person over the assets of a non-listed Union entity which the listed person owns or controls and that ensures that no benefit accrues to the latter, thus allowing that entity to continue its business operations. With a view to safeguarding maritime safety, it is appropriate to introduce an exemption from the asset freeze and the prohibition on making funds and economic resources available to allow for the provision of pilot services in specific circumstances.

    (8)

    Further action by the Union is needed in order to implement certain measures.

    (9)

    Decision 2014/145/CFSP should therefore be amended accordingly,

    SPS CJSC is a Russia-based entity that manufactures computers and other electronic equipment. SPS CJSC is actively involved in circumventing sanctions through its partnership with an EU-based entity, namely Woerd-Tech BV. Since the imposition of EU sanctions prohibiting the export of semiconductors to Russia, the Netherlands-based entity Woerd-Tech BV has been suspected of illegally smuggling semiconductors to the Russian Federation. The owner of Woerd-Tech BV has been arrested by the competent Dutch authority on suspicion of sanctions circumvention. SPS CJSC has functioned as a key facilitator in the illegal smuggling operation run by Woerd-Tech BV, acting as the Russia-based recipient of illegally exported semiconductors.

    Therefore, SPS CJSC is an entity circumventing the Union’s restrictive measures by activities which have the aim or result of frustrating the prohibitions of Decision 2014/512/CFSP and Regulation (EU) No 833/2014.
