Ukraine will initiate sanctions against countries that buy Russian oil most.
This was stated by the Foreign Minister of Ukraine Andriy Sibiga, reports Interfax-Ukraine.
During the Fair Play Conference on Strengthening Sanctions against Russia, he noted that Kiev carefully monitors the growth of turnover between the Russian Federation and a number of countries, in particular, Central Asia. In some positions, an increase has been recorded.
Moreover, Sibiga said that it is a double -purpose product and which the Russian Federation uses in the production of military products.
“We will also respond and call to our partners by countries, and not many of them are most consumed by Russian oil. The shadow fleet is used, so in the near future we will initiate appropriate sanctions for those countries that buy Russian oil most, ”he said.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs noted that oil, gas and related products from the Russian Federation, which provide up to 50% of revenues to the Russian budget, are still entering European markets.
According to Sibiga’s statement, in April, Russia received about $ 13 billion from energy exports, while one day of the war costs it about 1 billion. Thus, the aggressor continues to earn much more than it spends on war against Ukraine.
He added that increasing attacks using missiles and drones indicate that Moscow still finds access to key components, raw materials, equipment and software.
“According to the analysis of the remains of Russian rockets and drones, we are constantly discovering foreign components made in at least 19 countries,” Sibiga said.
In addition, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine called for “cut” from the Russian Federation from critical components for the defense industry. He stressed that it is one of the elements of coercion to peace.
“Therefore, it is very important for all our allies to use all their sanction potential and tools to stop the further militarization of the Russian economy,” the minister summarized.
We will remind, about a week ago Sibiga said that President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy set Ukrainian diplomacy for the month of pressure on Russia. In particular, economic and restriction of the Russian Federation to produce weapons.
“We are an important month before us. Month of pressure on the aggressor. A month of full diplomatic mobilization, full involvement of diplomacy in order to approach a just and sustained peace for Ukraine, ”he said.
In addition, the other day the Foreign Minister met with the head of European diplomacy Kaya Callas. The parties discussed the following steps of the EU to strengthen the sanction pressure on the Russian Federation, and he noted that Ukraine expects that these sanctions would hit the military budget of the Dictator of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin.
Recall that Ukraine is preparing to apply to the European Union with a call to impose sanctions on companies from Bangladesh. They import grain exported from the Ukrainian territories occupied by Russia.
