**EU ambassadors are negotiating an unprecedented three-year renewal of sanctions on nearly 3,000 Russia-linked individuals and entities, instead of the usual six- or 12-month rollover,** [Reuters](https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/latvian-pm-opposes-deal-lift-sanctions-russia-linked-billionaires-usmanov-2026-09-22/) reports.

The proposed compromise would remove Alisher Usmanov and Mikhail Fridman from the sanctions list. Latvia has objected, preventing a final agreement for now.
