In a new wave of sanctions, the UK will ban Russian diamonds at the G7

In solidarity of Ukraine, Britain’s Prime Minister Rishi Sunak intends to declare an embargo on Russian diamond imports as well as imports of metals from Russia, including copper, aluminium, and nickel.

Along with those working in the energy, metallurgy, and shipping sectors, Britain is now targeting an additional 86 individuals and organisations from Russian President Vladimir Putin’s military industrial complex.

As Britain continues to cooperate with G7 allies to address all types of sanctions circumvention, they include those who actively support the Kremlin in its efforts to weaken the impact of current sanctions, the government said.

When Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy visited the nation on Monday as part of a European trip aimed at acquiring new weapons for a counteroffensive against Russia, Britain made a long-range attack drone promise to him.

The Group of Seven (G7) summit is being held in Hiroshima this weekend and will be attended by the leaders of advanced democracies Japan, the United States, Germany, Britain, France, Canada, and Italy.

The G7 nations are prepared to use the summit to discuss strategy for a dispute that has lasted more than a year and shows no signs of ending, as well as to announce more penalties against Russia.In solidarity of Ukraine, Britain’s Prime Minister Rishi Sunak intends to declare an embargo on Russian diamond imports as well as imports of metals from Russia, including copper, aluminium, and nickel.
