The British Foreign Office said in a statement that “Britain is banning the import of iron and steel from Russia from 14 April.”
“From tomorrow, we will ban the import of Russian iron and steel, as well as the export of quantitative technologies and advanced materials that Putin desperately needs,” said Minister Liz Truss.
It is noteworthy that the relevant regulations will be presented to Parliament tomorrow, Thursday.
Britain’s annual inflation accelerated to 7% in March, after hitting 6.2% the previous month, to reach its highest level since 1992.
