On 2 July 2026, the Council of the European Union published a corrigendum to Council Decision (CFSP) 2026/1363, correcting an obvious error in the annex listing of IPJSC NTK under restrictive measures against Russia. The correction adds two additional aliases — 'MKAO NTKh' and 'MKAO NTH' — and revises the Russian-language alias to 'MKAO НТХ', ensuring the entity is accurately identified across all 24 official EU languages.
The corrigendum follows Procedure 2(b) for obvious errors, which included a three-day observation period for Member States. The amendment applies to all linguistic versions of the Official Journal, maintaining the legal precision and enforceability of the sanctions regime. By updating the aliases, the Council aims to prevent circumvention of restrictive measures due to incomplete or incorrect entity identification.
This technical correction underscores the EU's commitment to meticulous legal drafting and multilingual consistency in its sanctions framework. The measure has no direct impact on the scope or substance of the existing sanctions but reinforces their operational effectiveness by ensuring that listed entities cannot evade restrictions through name variations.
