It is noteworthy that the EU has already imposed nine waves of unprecedented anti-Russia sanctions since the start of the Ukraine war in February, including targeting Russian key energy exports.

European governments are now suffering the repercussions of their sanctions amid rising strikes and protests over the cost of living and pay.
