More than anyone: the United Kingdom will impose large-scale sanctions against the shadow fleet of the Russian Federation-Bloomberg

To spread: The United Kingdom is preparing sanctions for 100 oil tankers belonging to Russia's shadow fleet: these vessels have only been transported over $ 24 billion from the beginning of last year. Bloomberg was told about new sanctions against the Kremlin on May 9. "The United Kingdom will impose sanctions on 100 oil tankers, which, she said, is part of the shadow fleet of ships that help Russia to transport their oil," the statement said.

It is noted that such actions will help increase the number of vessels determined by the United Kingdom to 75%. British authorities claim that new sanctions will mean that the country has imposed severe restrictions on most Russian fleet vessels than any other country. Before that, according to Bloomberg, the United Kingdom has imposed sanctions against 133 Russian tankers. In this case, some of these restrictions were imposed by other governments, according to the material.

However, Bloomberg notes that, according to its own sources, among 41 vessels, which have been imposed on the UK sanctions, 39 and still continue the transportation of Russian cargo. The Kremlin restrictions on a full -scale invasion of Ukraine should be reported on Friday, May 9. On May 3, Reuters sources reported that the United States had completed the work on new ones - "devastating" - sanctions against Russia.

According to them, a new package of sanctions includes restrictions in banking and energy: under the sight will be giant companies, including Russian Gazprom. At the same time, US President Donald Trump once again threatened the Kremlin with new sanctions, urging Russia and Ukraine to start a 30-day ceasefire. The American leader noted that in case of failure to observe this truce, the White House will impose new sanctions against the Russian Federation.
