Yandex co-founder Arkady Volozh to be removed from EU Russian sanctions list - sources
BRUSSELS, Feb 21 (Reuters) - EU countries have agreed to remove Arkady Volozh, co-founder of Russian internet giant Yandex, from its list of sanctioned entities and individuals relating to Russia's war in Ukraine, three sources familiar with the matter said.
Volozh is one of three individuals who will be removed after March 15 when the sanctions regime is renewed. The EU's regime needs to be discussed and renewed every six months.
Volozh did not immediately respond to a request for comment. (Reporting by Julia Payne and Jan Strupczewski, additional reporting by Alexandre Marrow; Editing by Kirsten Donovan)
