The British government has apologized for easing anti-Russian sanctions. This is reported by Bloomberg.

Recall, on the eve of the UK Ministry of Finance published a license allowing the indefinite import of fuel manufactured by third countries from Russian oil. London took this step because of the risks of a shortage of diesel and aviation kerosene amid rising energy prices.

"We handled it clumsily, it's entirely my fault, for which I apologize. As a result, we created the wrong impression of what we are trying to achieve," said British Trade Minister Chris Bryant, speaking in Parliament, quoted by RIA Novosti.

He promised that the license would be suspended "at the first opportunity."

As reported by EADaily, Britain indefinitely allowed the import of diesel and jet fuel from Russian oil produced in third countries. This is stated in the license published by the Ministry of Finance of the country.
