On July 13, local time, the foreign ministers meeting of EU member states came to an end. The member states failed to agree on the 21st round of sanctions against Russia, and the relevant plan was not passed due to differences. EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Callas said after the EU foreign ministers' meeting on the same day that member states will continue to discuss the 21st round of sanctions against Russia. Since EU sanctions against Russia require the unanimous approval of 27 member states, opposition from any member state will prevent the plan from being passed.
