The European Union has imposed sanctions on two pro‑Russian organizations, Euromore and the Foundation for the Support and Protection of the Rights of Compatriots Living Abroad (Pravfond), for spreading disinformation and supporting Kremlin hybrid influence operations against the EU and Ukraine. The measures freeze any assets within the EU and bar EU citizens and companies from providing funds or economic resources, while noting Euromore’s domain now redirects to Euroview Media which republishes material from RT and Sputnik. #Euromore #Pravfond
