https://www.politico.eu/article/russ...n-euro-battle/
The European Union is now pressing to claw back €1.4 billion each year from Moscow, arguing that the Kremlin unlawfully banned imports of pork meat from Europe in January 2014, just as President Vladmir Putin’s relations with the West slid into a precipitous decline.
The EU not only raised the €1.4 billion figure, but said that it would additionally seek 15 percent interest on sums recouped from Russia in subsequent years.
