Great Britain’s new sanctions against Russia concern companies that were involved in the theft of Ukrainian grain.
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak announced a new package of sanctions against Russia, writes Economic Truth.
We are talking about restrictions for companies that are involved in the theft of Ukrainian grain and that are close to Rosatom.
In the transport sector, sanctions will be applied to 24 organizations and individuals involved in grain theft. Including:
• Powell Shipping Co LLP;
• “State Grain Corporation” (SGC) and its director Nikita Busel, who are associated with systematic embezzlement (agricultural products were stolen by the occupiers in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine and exported under the label “Russian goods”).
