“Watch: Russia-bound luxury cars get stuck in Belgium under EU sanctions”
European luxury cars meant to be sent to Russia are now stuck at the Zeebrugge port in Belgium due to EU sanctions over the war in Ukraine.
A luxury ban introduced in mid-March prohibits the sale of EU-made vehicles worth over €50,000 to Russia, influencing brands such as Mercedes, Ferrari and Porsche.
The measure has caused significant disruption across the bloc’s freight hubs, including at the modern port of Zeebrugge, which handles over 2.2 million units of conventional cargo on an annual basis, making it one of the main car-handling ports in the world.
