Debate
Russia (Sanctions) (EU Exit) (Amendment) Regulations 2025Contribution
The reason it is important is that we still see regular reports that sanctioned components are being found on the battlefield that are being deployed by Russia. Therefore, what is the view of His Majesty’s Government on the means by which they are still being used by Russia? What work are we doing with the United States and the EU in particular to ensure that this is halted fully? Sanctioning through legislation is one welcome part; enforcement is another. I hear what the Minister said about the decline in imports and exports—that is welcome—but how are we ensuring that our officials, who are tasked with enforcing our sanctions, are working closely with those from other countries? Do we have an integrated taskforce for the implementation of sanctions restrictions?
