The government of the United Kingdom will not ease sanctions on Russian oil, Energy Minister Michael Shanks said.
According to the BBC, as reported by Ukrinform, the minister stressed the importance of sanctions in the context of a decision by the United States to temporarily lift sanctions on Russian oil and petroleum products loaded onto vessels at sea.
“The UK government will not be loosening sanctions on Russia at all,” Shanks said.
He also warned of the consequences of President Putin having an opportunity to invest more in the Ukraine war.
As reported earlier, the United States is suspending sanctions for one month on the sale of Russian oil and petroleum products that were loaded onto vessels before March 12.
