South Korean fuel shipped to Russia despite sanctions
Original: Fuel from South Korea being shipped to Russia as Ukraine war grinds on
A Guardian investigation has found that more than 150,000 tonnes of fuel from South Korea was shipped to Russian ports in July and August, with some cargoes carried on tankers already under Western sanctions. The revelations raise questions about loopholes in sanctions enforcement as the war in Ukraine continues, and are likely to prompt scrutiny from regulators and officials in Seoul and among allied governments.
Why now: New evidence of sanctioned fuel shipments undermines the sanctions regime supporting Ukraine and implicates a key US ally.
