UK to Allow Imports of Diesel, Jet Fuel Refined From Russian Oil
The UK will loosen sanctions by allowing imports of diesel and jet fuel refined from Russian oil in third countries such as India and Turkey. The trade licence is described as indefinite in duration and subject to periodic review, with the waiver aiming to ease supply concerns as fuel prices rise. Multiple sources report that the move targets Russian-origin fuels refined abroad, and the policy is framed as a sanction adjustment rather than a broad opening. Disagreements are not substantial in the supplied material, though Al Jazeera notes indefinite duration while BBC emphasizes the waiver starting as prices climb amid Hormuz-related tensions. Bloomberg concurs that imports will be allowed from third countries.
