New sanctions have been issued by the UK on “the Russian military and Kremlin insiders.”

Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the president of Ukraine, paid an unexpected visit to Britain on Wednesday.

The sanctions package targets eight people and one business linked to “nefarious financial networks that assist sustain wealth and influence among Kremlin elites,” according to a government statement, as well as six entities that provide military hardware, such as drones, for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

“Ukraine has shown Putin that it will not break under his tyrannical invasion. He has responded by indiscriminately striking civilian areas and critical national infrastructure across the country,” UK Foreign Secretary James Cleverly said in the statement.

“We cannot let him succeed. We must increase our support,” he added.

“These new sanctions accelerate the economic pressure on Putin – undermining his war machine to help Ukraine prevail,” said Cleverly.

“I am determined, consistent with our laws, that Russia will have no access to the assets we have frozen until it ends, once and for all, its threats to Ukraine’s territorial sovereignty and integrity.”

Wednesday morning, Zelenskyy travelled to London and met with UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.

The president of Ukraine is scheduled to speak before British parliamentarians and then have a meeting with King Charles.
