MOSCOW (Sputnik) - The situation with restrictions on transit of goods to Russia’s Kaliningrad Region has not been resolved yet, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Wednesday, adding that Moscow expects to see progress.

The Izvestia newspaper has reported that the EU and Russia have reached an agreement on transit of goods to Kaliningrad.

"So far, there is no finalization of this situation. We expect some progress, but so far we cannot say that this problem has been resolved," Peskov told reporters.

The European Union banned Russia-registered trucks in early April but made an exemption for those transiting to Kaliningrad, which is located on the Baltic Sea coast. The current restrictions on the transit of Russian goods, announced by Lithuania, apply to all transit of goods sanctioned by the EU. Lithuanian Railways notified the Kaliningrad region's railway of halting the transit of a number of goods subject to EU sanctions on June 18.
