The EU joins the US in calling on Russia to restore freedom of navigation to the Sea of Azov, a binational sea. The EU delegation in in Ukraine stated Friday: “In the past months, Russia has increasingly and deliberately hindered and delayed the passage of vessels, including those from EU Member States, transiting through the Kerch Strait to and from Ukraine’s ports in the Sea of Azov. We expect Russia to ensure unhindered access to Ukrainian ports in the Sea of Azov.”
