Whilst the Government keeps the list of proscribed organisations under review, we do not routinely comment on whether an organisation is or is not under consideration for proscription.

The UK and our allies condemn the Russian Government’s unprovoked and premeditated invasion of Ukraine. We have considerable powers to sanction the Russian Government, which we have used with our allies to significant effect. The Government has implemented the strongest set of economic sanctions ever to degrade Russia’s war.
