HIROSHIMA, Japan -- The European Union is pushing to curb Russia's ability to sell diamonds, in a fresh attempt to cut off a source of funds as Russia continues its offensive in Ukraine, a European Union leader said Friday.
"We will restrict trade in Russian diamonds. Russian diamonds are not forever," said Charles Michel, president of the European Council, at a news conference, adding that the EU was preparing to propose diamond trade restrictions at a Group of Seven summit meeting later Friday.
