Question to the Department for International Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, if she will take steps with her international counterparts to discourage trade with Russia that may aid or assist that state's invasion of Ukraine.

In lockstep with our allies, we are introducing the largest and most severe package of economic sanctions that Russia has ever faced, to maximise the impact on Russia’s campaign in Ukraine and cut off funding for Putin’s war machine.

Whilst we do not speculate on future sanctions, we will continue to consider further measures to increase pressure on Putin’s regime.
