British Foreign Secretary Liz Truss calls on the entire G7 to ban Russia oil imports, saying the world’s leading economies should “go further and faster” in punishing Moscow and President Vladimir Putin for invading Ukraine.
“We must double down on our sanctions. That includes… the G7 ending its use of Russian oil and gas” and a ban on Russian banks using the SWIFT bank messaging system, Truss says in a joint press conference at the US State Department alongside Secretary of State Antony Blinken.
