EU extends Crimea and Sevastopol sanctions for another year through June 23, 2027
The European Union has renewed its restrictive measures tied to Russia’s illegal annexation of Crimea and Sevastopol, extending the regime for another year to June 23, 2027.
BRUSSELS, June 16, 2026 — The European Union has adopted Council Decision (CFSP) 2026/1360, amending Decision 2014/386/CFSP and extending the bloc’s Crimea and Sevastopol sanctions by one year, according to the Official Journal and the Council’s sanctions page. The act was adopted on June 15 and published in the Official Journal on June 16.
The decision keeps in place the EU’s long-running non-recognition measures imposed in response to Russia’s illegal annexation of Crimea and Sevastopol. The Council says those restrictions cover imports of goods from Crimea or Sevastopol into the EU, as well as prohibitions on infrastructural and financial investment and tourism services linked to the occupied territory.
The Council sanctions page says the measures have now been extended until June 23, 2027, marking the latest annual rollover of the Crimea-specific regime. Last year’s renewal had carried the measures through June 23, 2026.
