UPDATE 1-UK allows diesel and jet fuel imports from Russian crude via sanctions carve-out

Britain ​will allow ‌the import and ​provision of services linked to diesel and ‌jet fuel refined abroad from Russian crude under a new general trade licence exempting specific ‌products from sanctions restrictions.

The licence ‌issued on Tuesday grants exemptions where the fuels are processed in third countries but includes ⁠conditions such ​as ⁠record-keeping requirements for companies. The new rules take ⁠effect on Wednesday and will be of indefinite ​duration, though they will be reviewed ⁠periodically and can be amended or revoked, the ⁠government ​said in a notice.

Separately, Britain issued a time-limited licence covering the ⁠maritime transportation of liquefied natural gas and ⁠related services ⁠under Russia sanctions rules, running until January 1 next year.
