HELSINKI, August 14. /ITAR-TASS/. The EU may impose new sanctions against Russia for security reasons only, Finnish Prime Minister Alexander Stubb said on Thursday.

He was speaking at a session of the parliament foreign affairs committee which focused on the crisis in Ukraine.

“We discussed the situation in Ukraine, the impact of sanctions and economic planning. We believe that the EU will most likely take no countermeasures in response to the Russian sanctions,” Stubb said.
