Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office written question – answered at on 23 November 2022.
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether he has had recent discussions with representatives of the British Overseas Territories on the decision by the Russian Federation to include all British Overseas Territories on a so-called unfriendly list.
The UK Government is proud of the principled stand that the Overseas Territories, as part of the UK family, have taken in relation to sanctions. UK sanctions apply in all Overseas Territories and the elected leaders of the Territories have publicly committed to implementing sanctions against Russia following its illegal invasion of Ukraine. Russia noted the Territories support of UK sanctions in their decision to include all Territories alongside the UK on a so-called unfriendly list. We are in regular contact with the Overseas Territories and will continue to discuss the impact of the implementation of sanctions including Russia's designations.
