Regime list

Zimbabwe current regime list (html)
Last updated: 5 April 2013

Overview

The European Union adopted Council Regulation (EC) No 310/2002 on 18 February 2002. The Regulation provided, among other matters, for a freeze on the assets of selective members of the Government of Zimbabwe and individuals associated with them. Common Position 2002/145/CFSP adopted the position that listed persons should be subject to a visa ban.

The European Union has since extended the scope of the visa ban and assets freeze.
