>Orban and Fico ask EU to lift sanctions against six Russian oligarchs
Hungary and Slovakia have asked the European Union to lift sanctions against six Russian businessmen in exchange for extending other sanctions against Russia.
Countries have previously used their veto power to remove some well-known Russians from the list of sanctioned persons
In March, Russian businessman Vyacheslav Moshe Kantor, Russian Sports Minister Mikhail Degtyarev and billionaire Alisher Usmanov's sister Gulbahor Ismailova were removed from the "black" list in this way.
Last year, sanctions were also lifted against the co-founder of the Russian internet giant Yandex, Arkady Volozh, Russian businessman Sergei Mndoyants, Slovak citizen and head of the Russian nationalist motorcycle club Night Wolves in Europe, Josef Hambalek, and the mother of the late Wagner mercenary leader Yevgeny Prigozhin, Violetta Prigozhina.
