OREANDA-NEWS The UK has allowed the import of diesel and kerosene produced from Russian oil in third countries, according to a license published by the British Ministry of Finance.
The bans imposed as part of the sanctions against Russia do not apply to the relevant refined petroleum products," the document says.
The document comes into force on May 20 and has no deadline, but is subject to periodic review.
The day before, the United States also issued a new 30-day license for offshore supplies of Russian oil. The measure will affect fuel already loaded onto tankers so that the "most vulnerable" countries can temporarily gain access to Russian oil stuck in the sea.
Fuel prices began to rise worldwide after the start of the US-Israeli operation against Iran. The sides have been exchanging blows since the end of February. This led to the blocking of the Strait of Hormuz, a key route for the supply of oil and liquefied natural gas from Arab countries.
