Impose sanctions on Russian oil and gas
UK sanctions against Russia and Belarus are not enough. Oil and gas make up a fifth of Russia’s economy and half of its earnings from exports. The UK needs to impose sanctions on Russian gas, and commit to cover the cost for low-income households in the UK.
Johnson promised sweeping sanctions to hobble the Russian economy. Ukraine’s president Volodymyr Zelensky has called for stronger action. This must be part of a long-term shift to renewable energy, energy efficiency and energy saving.
