Original: Human rights violations in Russia: Council lists ten individuals over the barring of Yabloko from the State Duma elections
The EU Council has imposed restrictive measures on ten Russian individuals in response to human rights violations linked to the barring of the Yabloko party from taking part in the State Duma elections.

It is part of the bloc's global human rights sanctions regime and reflects continued EU criticism of restrictions on political opposition in Russia.
