The EU's executive has proposed banning the import of Russian diamonds and liquefied petroleum gases in a new round of sanctions over the war in Ukraine, according to a document seen by AFP Wednesday.
The package of sanctions -- which needs to be approved unanimously by European Union countries -- also includes measures aimed at preventing Russia from circumventing an oil price cap.
