“The Council has extended EU restrictive measures focused on the freezing and recovery of misappropriated Ukrainian state funds. The measures consist in an asset freeze on persons subject to initial investigations on the embezzlement of Ukrainian state funds, including former President Viktor Yanukovych,” the press release on the Council’s website said.
Recall that, in March 2014, the EU froze the bank accounts of Yanukovych, his family and several former Ukrainian officials. The new Ukrainian leadership has accused the former president of embezzling $3 billion.
