Vladimir Putin’s ambassador to the UK shrugged, avoiding Keir Starmer’s latest sanctions on Russia.
Andrei Kelin claims that despite the British invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Britain will not be able to achieve its goals in Ukraine, despite new restrictions imposed on the Russian tanker fleet.
The UK has announced that it will impose sanctions on up to 100 ships that carry more than £18 billion worth of cargo since early 2024.
The Prime Minister said it was the “largest sanctions package ever made against the Russian shadow fleet.”
But according to the Russian State News Agency tassKilling dismissed the new sanctions, saying: “There’s nothing they can do.”
He added: “They will never hinder the achievement of our political and military goals.”
The ambassador claimed that Starmer deliberately attacked Russia with new sanctions on May 9, when Moscow held a Victory Day celebration to remember how the Soviet Union defeated Nazi Germany.
Putin invited 29 world leaders to Russia in an attempt to impress them with his military performance.
These are “symbolic dates – combined with general summits, general gatherings in Western countries, or now September 9 – showing that it still has the ability to take some form of action to introduce some kind of limitation”.
New sanctions emerge as Putin continues to drag his heels into peace talks.
He suggested last month’s three-day ceasefire coincide with his Victory Day celebrations, but Ukraine called it a “farce” and questioned why Putin wouldn’t promise a 30-day truce like Kiev.
Putin’s three-day ceasefire actually disagrees, which is said to be effective Thursday.
But Russia defendant Ukraine has taken further attempts to violate the Russian border in Kursk and Bergorod regions, and further conflicts occurred between its troops reported in eastern Ukraine.
Ukraine also claimed that Russia repeatedly violated its truce on Monday. The governor of the occupied Zaporizhzhia claimed that after the truce entered the field, Russia attacked its front-line village 220 times.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy also announced a meeting of the Willing Alliance this weekend, where Ukraine’s allies will gather in the country for further peace negotiations.
Downing Street did not confirm whether Starmer would participate.
British Foreign Secretary David Lammy attended Ukraine talks with other leaders on Friday as they all called for “crimes targeting criminals invading Ukraine.”
“It’s obvious that when this war is over, those have already carried out this war. [crimes of aggression] In Russia, their crimes of aggression and crimes against humanity must be considered. ” Lumi Tell the press.
