This written declaration commits only those who have signed it.
We, the undersigned, declare the following:
The war of aggression by the
Russian Federation against Ukraine, costing the lives of thousands
of innocent citizens and leading to massive destruction, is being
financed with the Russian Federation’s oil and gas expert revenues;
We therefore welcome the oil and gas embargo imposed by
several EU and non-EU-countries on imports from the Russian Federation;
We regret however that too many EU-countries have taken
no, limited or very slow future action to impose a full oil and
gas embargo on imports from the Russian Federation;
We therefore call upon all those countries which are still
importing Russian oil and gas to stop doing so immediately and thereby
end their co-financing of the war;
We call also upon the European Union to impose a full
embargo on Russian oil and gas. This embargo should be part of the
sixth package of sanctions against the Russian Federation.
By adopting the above recommendations, we strongly believe
that the Russian Federation’s aggression against Ukraine could no
longer be financed.
