On August 8, the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine decided to impose new special sanctions against the Russian corporation Rosatom and its global infrastructure.
These measures were approved by Ukrainian presidential decrees #594/2025 and #595/2025.
The sanctions cover 18 individuals and 17 legal entities involved in attempts to integrate the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant into the Russian energy system, participation in the seizure of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, production and maintenance of dual-use nuclear equipment, and export of enriched uranium through subsidiaries in Europe.
The key figures on the list include Nikita Konstantinov, deputy general director of Rosenergoatom Concern JSC, as well as the companies Uranium One Holding N.V. (Netherlands), Rosatom Finance Ltd (Cyprus) and Kirov-Energomash JSC (Russia).
Vlasyuk notes that the expansion of sanctions pressure on Rosatom is an integral part of the fight to limit Russia's access to critical nuclear technology and financing.
Synchronization
The synchronization of sanctions with key international partners continues in parallel.
Ukraine has already fully synchronized sanctions with the United States, adopted in 2025, which target Russia's energy and military-industrial complexes, as well as intermediary networks in third countries.
The sanctions lists include Gazpromneft subsidiaries in Russia, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan, as well as operators of Russia's shadow fleet and traders who circumvent oil price controls.
Other targets include companies producing equipment for Russia's military-industrial complex in Russia, China, Turkey, UAE and Malaysia, as well as financial and logistics structures that help circumvent sanctions.
Ukraine says it is ready for further coordination with international partners to strengthen the sanctions regime and minimize the risks of circumventing it.
