The Russian Permanent Mission to the European Union posted an article on social media platforms on October 12 in response to the sanctions list against Russia passed by the European Union on the same day. The article emphasizes that Russia does not recognize such unilateral coercive measures that bypass the Charter of the United Nations and considers them illegal and unfounded. The EU's attempt to change Russia's foreign policy policy policy through pressure of sanctions is bound to have no way out; the EU's hostile actions will receive an appropriate response from Russia.
