🇬🇧 English

This regulation keeps EU restrictive measures in place against Michael Makuei Lueth, a senior South Sudanese official, and updates his entry in the EU sanctions list. The updated listing reflects his current role as Minister of Justice and Constitutional Affairs and repeats the EU’s reasons for maintaining sanctions against him. The practical impact is mainly for banks, insurers, exporters, professional services firms, and compliance teams in the EU. They should make sure screening systems, sanctions databases, and customer checks reflect the updated identifying information and continue to block prohibited dealings with the listed person.
