Sharjah24 – AFP: Britain is freezing the UK assets of Russian titans in banking and arms manufacturing, sanctioning five more oligarchs and banning Aeroflot from its airspace, Prime Minister Boris Johnson said Thursday.
Announcing the sanctions in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, he told parliament that President Vladimir Putin "will never be able to cleanse the blood of Ukraine from his hands".
