Danish shipping giant Maersk says that it will stop taking new non-essential orders to and from Russia, due to sanctions imposed over Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.
Citing the impact of sanctions, “bookings to and from Russia will be temporarily suspended, with exception of Foodstuffs, Medical and Humanitarian supplies,” Maersk says in a statement, adding it will attempt to honor bookings placed prior to the sanctions.
