The UK has eased sanctions against Russia related to insurance in the aviation industry.
This is stated in the corresponding document on the website of the British government.
“The General License has been revised to remove from paragraph 1(h) regulation 28 (on financial services and facilities related to goods and technologies whose importation is restricted). This allows insurance and reinsurance to be provided to a person associated with Russia in respect of the items referred to in paragraph 1(a), subject to broader restrictions and license conditions,” the document says.
This will allow Russia to obtain certain aviation goods and technologies, such as gas turbine engines.
Recall that the European Union is trying to agree on the seventh package of sanctions against Russia by the end of July.
In addition, Ukraine has submitted proposals to the European Union on the seventh package of sanctions against Russia and insists on the early adoption of new restrictions.
As you know, the leaders of the G7 countries at the summit in Germany approved new sanctions against Russia. In the United States, inflation in Russia is predicted to grow by more than 20%.
Recall that the EU has introduced the sixth package of sanctions against the Russian Federation, which provides for the prohibition of Russian oil and the disconnection from SWIFT.
At the same time, some EU leaders are in no hurry to talk about the seventh package of sanctions, calling the goal of imposing a gas embargo even harder. In particular, the Belgian authorities called on the European Union to pause the imposition of sanctions against the Russian Federation.
By the way, Russian enterprises of the military-industrial complex no longer have imported components for the repair and maintenance of aircraft of the An, Il, and Tu series.
