August 5, 2024 — The European Union is reportedly considering new sanctions against seafood of Russian origin as the divide between the bloc and the country grows.
German publication Die Welt reported the E.U. is considering new sanctions against Russian seafood, including Russian pollock. The E.U. already banned a number of Russian seafood items in a sanctions package in 2022, including items like crustaceans and caviar, but pollock was still allowed.
