(7) Russia is becoming increasingly reliant on energy revenues to fund its illegal war of aggression against Ukraine. In order to further constrain the activity of vessels that are part of the ‘shadow fleet’ of oil tankers or that contribute to Russia’s energy revenues, Decision (CFSP) 2025/931 also adds 189 vessels to the list of vessels set out in Annex XVI to Decision 2014/512/CFSP, which are banned from accessing Member States’ ports and locks, as well as from receiving a broad range of services related to maritime transport.
