Earlier in the day, the European Unions announced its decision to add six entities involved in the construction of the Kerch Bridge, officially opened by Russian President Vladimir Putin in May and connecting the illegally annexed Crimea to Russia, to sanctions list.

Two of the six companies belong to Arkady Rotenberg, Putin’s close ally.
