MOSCOW (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 13th July, 2022) The European Commission said on Wednesday it had advised to not impose a ban on railway transit of sanctioned Russian goods to Kaliningrad if the transit is under appropriate control of the EU member states.
"This guidance confirms that the transit of sanctioned goods by road with Russian operators is not allowed under the EU measures. No such similar prohibition exists for rail transport, without prejudice to Member States' obligation to perform effective controls," the statement read.
