Judgment in Case T-743/22 Mazepin v Council
(Restrictive measures – Ukraine)
In March 2022, Nikita Dmitrievich Mazepin was included on the list of persons targeted by the restrictive measures adopted by the European Union following the Russian aggression against Ukraine.
In particular, his funds have been frozen and he has been banned from entering Member States. His inclusion on this list is based on his association with his father – Mr Dmitry Arkadievich Mazepin – an influential businessman who provides a substantial source of income to the Russian government. According to the Council, Dmitry Mazepin was the main sponsor of his son’s activities as a racing driver with the Haas Formula 1 team.
In three consecutive series of decisions in September 2022, March 2023 and September 2023, the Council extended the restrictive measures against Nikita Mazepin until 15 March 2024.
Taking the view that these decisions were vitiated by an error of assessment by the Council, Mr Nikita Mazepin asked the General Court of the European Union to annul them.

Urteil des Gerichts in der Rechtssache T‑743/22 Nikita Dmitrievich Mazepin / Rat
Restriktive Maßnahmen angesichts der Situation in der Ukraine
Anfang März 2022 beschloss der Rat der EU angesichts der Situation in der Ukraine, die Gelder von Nikita Dmitrievich Mazepin einzufrieren und ihm die Einreise in bzw. die Durchreise durch die EU zu untersagen. Dieser Beschluss wurde September 2022 bis zum 15. März 2023 verlängert.
Nikita Mazepin sei der Sohn von Dmitry Arkadievich Mazepin, dem ehemaligen Generaldirektor der JSC UCC Uralchem. Er sei bis März 2022 Fahrer im Haas-F1-Team gewesen, das von Uralchem gesponsert wurde.
Er sei eine natürliche Person mit Verbindungen zu einem führenden Geschäftsmann (seinem Vater), der in Bereichen der Wirtschaft tätig gewesen sei, die der Regierung der Russischen Föderation, die für die Annexion der Krim und die Destabilisierung der Ukraine verantwortlich sei, als wichtige Einnahmenquelle dienen.
Herr Mazepin hat die gegen ihn verhängten Sanktionen vor dem Gericht der EU angefochten.
Mit Beschlüssen im Verfahren des vorläufigen Rechtsschutzes vom 1. März und 19. Juli 2023 hat der Präsident des Gerichts die Sanktionen teilweise ausgesetzt, nämlich soweit das für erforderlich ist, damit Herr Mazepin seine Karriere als Rennfahrer in der EU fortsetzen kann.
Zu diesem Urteil wird es eine Pressemitteilung sowie Filmaufnahmen von Europe by Satellite (EBS) geben.
