On the second anniversary of the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine, British Foreign Secretary David Cameron announced a series of new sanctions against Russia, aiming to weaken the arsenal and war funds of the Putin regime. These sanctions have a wide range of targets, including key industries such as arms manufacturers, electronics companies, oil and diamond traders. This move by the UK is a direct response to Russias support for military operations in Ukraine, aiming to further isolate the international financial resources of the Putin regime.

The sanctioned entities cover multiple areas of the Russian defense industry, from the state - owned enterprise Sverdlov, which produces ammunition, to major companies responsible for importing and manufacturing machine tools crucial to defense systems. This shows the precision and depth of the UKs sanctions, aiming to directly hit Russias military capabilities and its activities in the international arms market.

Oil trader Niels Trost and his company, Paramount Energy and Commodities, are also on the sanctions list. The British government accuses them of facilitating the trade of Russian oil outside the scope of UK and G7 sanctions, especially through branches based in the UAE. This sanction not only hits Russias energy exports but also aims to cut off the funding sources of the Putin regime through energy trade.

此外，制裁還針對(duì)了俄羅斯的鉆石行業(yè)，包括俄羅斯最大的國有鉆石生產(chǎn)商Alrosa的新任首席執(zhí)行官Pavel Alekseevich Marinychev，以及其他鉆石公司?？紤]到俄羅斯在全球鉆石市場約占30%的份額，此舉無疑將對(duì)全球鉆石貿(mào)易產(chǎn)生影響。

The content of the UKs sanctions this time includes asset freezes, trust service sanctions, transportation sanctions, and immigration sanctions (travel bans). These measures will prevent any British citizen or enterprise in the UK from conducting economic activities with the designated Russian individuals or entities, and at the same time, prohibit these Russian individuals or entities from entering or staying in the United Kingdom.
