The European Union is intensifying its work on the 10th sanctions package against Russia, with Poland proposing the imposition of new measures and strengthening existing ones, according to the Polish Ambassador to the EU, Andrzej Sados.

"The work has really been accelerated. Poland as a member of a group of like-minded countries is making proposals on new sanctions. Tightening up existing restrictions is also a constant process," Sados said, as quoted by the Polish news agency PAP.

It is reported that the new package of sanctions aims to expand the list of sanctioned individuals and organizations and add diamonds to the list of sanctioned Russian exports. Additionally, the new package of sanctions would be expected to target Russia and Belarus. 

Conversely, an EU source informed Sputnik that there are currently no discussions about a tenth package of sanctions against Russia and that no proposals on the issue were made by any member state.

In late December, the EU implemented the ninth package of sanctions against Russia, under the pretext of the war in Ukraine last year, which included new economic sanctions and personal sanctions targeting around 200 individuals and organizations.
