UK sanctions Russian lawmakers who supported Ukraine breakaways

Al Jazeera  

The blacklisted Duma members will be banned from travelling to or doing business in the UK and accessing assets held there. Friday’s announcement is the latest in a series of punitive measures taken by the UK and other international allies to increase diplomatic pressure on Russian President Vladimir Putin. “We’re targeting those complicit in Putin’s illegal invasion of Ukraine and those who support this barbaric war,” British Foreign Secretary Liz Truss said in a statement. “We will not let up the pressure and will continue to tighten the screw on the Russian economy through sanctions.” The listed Duma members will be banned from travelling to the UK, accessing assets held in Britain or doing business there, the Foreign Office said. On Thursday, the UK imposed sanctions on seven more Russian businesspeople, including Chelsea Football Club owner Roman Abramovich, in an attempt to root out Russian assets parked in Britain and increase pressure on Putin and his allies.
