Foreign Sec presents more sanctions but warns of 'hardships'
Foreign Secretary Liz Truss announces a slew of new sanctions against Russia to the House of Commons, including "cutting Russia's central bank off" from UK markets and preventing Russia's banks from clearing in sterling.
She warns these sanctions will mean "economic hardship" for the UK and its allies, but says these are "nothing compared" to those endured by the people of Ukraine.

Three years after President Putin's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the UK has announced its largest sanctions package since 2022. Over 100 new sanctions directly target individuals, companies, and financial institutions aiding Russia's war efforts. The package includes sanctions on military suppliers, shadow oil fleets, and foreign entities supporting Russia, including North Korean officials and banks in Central Asia. The UK government says these measures will disrupt Putin's war machine and strengthen Ukraine's defense.

Key topics include American investments in Russia's rare-earth sector and billion-dollar trade deals.
