Dear Anneliese Dodds,
I learn from the BBC (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/58888451) that "The UK is to phase out Russian oil by the end of the year" and "Russian imports account for 8% of total UK oil demand".
8% is a small amount and the end of the year is a long time in the future. We need immediate action to change Russia's course. Please use all your influence to this end.
Some suggestions, as a minimum:
- Stop all petrochemical purchases from Russia, and requiring this of multinationals
- Expulsion of all remaining Russian banks from SWIFT
- Make it unlawful to insure a Russian enterprise
- Seizure and forfeiture of all Russian assets within the UK and its dominions
- Motion to remove Russia from the UN Security Council
There are many more things which could and should be done, by January 2023 there will be no Ukraine to defend.
Yours sincerely,
Tim Pizey
