There is great disagreement both among EU member states and between different EU institutions about what sanctions should be taken and how to proceed if so.
Sweden and several other countries are pushing to curb trade in settlements and believe it can be implemented with the help of a majority in the EU. Others believe that total unanimity is required.
After Monday's foreign ministers' meeting in Brussels, the issue will now be sent down to ambassadorial level.
The ministers also agree that we can call an extra meeting, if necessary, says Foreign Minister Kaja Kallas at the press conference afterwards.
Otherwise, a decision on the matter may be delayed until the next regular ministerial meeting, in October.
