Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, whether new sanctions against Russian entities in relation to Syria have been put in place since 20 April 2018.

No new sanctions have been put in place against Russian entities in relation to Syria since 20 April 2018. The EU maintains robust sanctions against the Assad regime to limit its ability to wage war on the Syrian population and encourage meaningful engagement with the UN-led political process.
