Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office written question – answered at on 30 January 2023.
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, if he will bring forward sanctions on individuals within the Russian orthodox church who are shown to be complicit in alleged Russian war crimes in Ukraine.
The UK Government does not speculate on specific future sanctions, as to do so could reduce their impact. The UK will continue to hold those who support Putin's brutal war of aggression against Ukraine to account. Since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the UK has sanctioned over 1,200 individuals, including Patriarch Kirill, head of the Russian Orthodox Church.
