During the roundtable Boris Kalisky (PSSI) and Lukáš Kraus (Lobbio) presented proposals how the new EU Parliament, the forming Commission and the current Czech Government can contribute to a better implementation of the sanction's regime vis á vis Russia on the EU and Czech level. Mrs. Jana Kobzová and Fredrik Löjdquist reflected on the proposals and added their own perspective and highlighted additional shortcomings and options for mitigation. In the concurring debate moderated by Pavel Havliček several guests contributed to the discussion highlighting further options how the procedures of sanction implementation should be improved and what other sanctions could be issued to put effective restraints on Russia's war effort.
The presented proposals will be finalized and published as publications.
