The European Union’s effort to pass its 18th sanctions package against Russia is facing internal resistance, with Estonia and Slovakia emerging as key roadblocks. Estonia is demanding a stricter oil price cap to increase pressure on Moscow, while Slovakia opposes the bloc’s plan to phase out Russian fossil fuels by 2027—citing fears of a multibillion-euro legal backlash from Gazprom. The dispute has stalled negotiations ahead of a vital EU foreign ministers’ meeting, underscoring deepening fractures within the EU as Russia escalates its aerial campaign in Ukraine.
