EU officials weigh adding Russia's GRU to terrorist list

Original: ❗️EU officials are discussing the idea of adding Russia’s GRU military intelligence agency to the bloc’s terrorist list,

EU officials are discussing placing Russia's GRU military intelligence agency on the bloc's terrorist list, according to RFE/RL Europe Editor Rikard Jozwiak. No decision has been announced, and it remains unclear how quickly member states could agree on such a move. The discussions come amid continuing EU support for Ukraine and broader sanctions efforts against Russian state institutions.

Why now: The possible designation of Russia's main military intelligence agency would mark a significant escalation in the EU's response to the war in Ukraine.
