Scrutiny of Gulf Cooperation Council trade with Russia

Tabled by Clive Jones (Liberal Democrat) 11 signatures

The motion

That this House welcomes the negotiation of new free trade agreements; is concerned that the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council have failed to support UK-led sanctions against Russia since its full-scale invasion of Ukraine; is further concerned that some of these countries have in fact increased trade with Russia during this period; notes that in the absence of a comprehensive trade policy it is unclear the extent to which the Government plans to factor this into the UK's trade relations with these countries; and urges the Government to offer assurances that companies and entities from these countries involved in the circumvention of sanctions on Russia will not be given preferential access to UK market.
