The President of Ukraine reacted to the introduction of the next sanctions by the United Kingdom against the vessels of the so-called shadow fleet of Russia.
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy noted the important role of the sanctions against Russian tankers introduced by Britain on November 25.
“Today there is a new decision by Britain on sanctions against the shadow tanker fleet. Thirty tankers have been sanctioned. This is an important step. And it will be right for European partners — at the level of the entire EU — as well as other partners to support such sanctions,” the President emphasized. “The less Russian super-profits from oil, the less Russia will have the opportunity to wage war. This is an obvious connection. A connection that must work for the sake of real peace.”
As we recall, the day before, the British Government imposed sanctions against 30 tankers associated with Russia. Over the past year, these vessels have illegally transported billions of pounds worth of oil and petroleum products.
