> The EU is preparing a 14th sanctions package against Russia and Belarus that targets sanctions circumvention. The bloc is again debating an exemption for Belarusian potash fertilizer on food-security grounds, with Brazil lobbying for relief. Analysts consider the exemption unlikely to pass because US and EU sanction regimes are closely aligned.
