Processed Russian Oil Products: Sanctions

Contribution

I thank my noble friend for reminding us all of the cross-party commitment to supporting Ukraine, which I know is felt strongly across this place. I absolutely confirm that the package of sanctions against Russia is stronger than it was two days ago. It has introduced new restrictions on oil products refined from Russian crude in third countries. It includes a maritime service ban on Russian LNG to restrict Russia’s access to the UK’s world-leading shipping and insurance services. I can also confirm, in answer to her question, that these are going to be targeted short-term licences and exemptions that will be reviewed regularly. We absolutely intend that they are only temporary.
