The UK has imposed sanctions against LUKOIL and Rosneft. This information is published in the sanctions list on the UK government website.

The measures include asset freezes, as well as sanctions on trust services and transportation. The document states that these measures are related to "doing business in a sector of strategic importance to the Russian government, namely the energy sector." The companies were previously subject to sectoral sanctions.

In the case of Rosneft, the British government banned vessels owned, controlled, chartered, or operated by the company from entering UK ports. Similarly, the company's aircraft were banned from flying over or landing in the country.

Also, according to a document published on the UK government website, the Indian company Nayara Energy, whose largest shareholder is Rosneft, was subject to sanctions.

Additionally, the Chinese company National Pipeline Group Beihai Liquefied Natural Gas CO LTD was added to the sanctions list. The reason cited for the inclusion included interaction with vessels subject to British sanctions.

Sanctions were also imposed on the National Payment Card System and several banks: Transstroibank, Primsotsbank, BBR Bank, and Solid Bank. The document states that the measures are related to the fact that all of them are engaged in "doing business in a sector of strategic importance to the Russian government, namely the financial sector."

On September 19, the UK expanded its sanctions against RUSSIA. These restrictions included the Russian it company Aeza Group, the helicopter company HeliCo Group, and two ships, the Bavly and the Karakuz.

Sanctions were also imposed on two individuals: businessman, former top manager of AFK Sistema and former majority owner of AT-Consulting (part of Rosatom) Levan Vasadze, as well as co-founder and chairman of the board of directors of Moscow Business Brokerage LLC, initiator and HEAD of the BRICS investment platform Otar Partskhaladze.

Moscow considers Western sanctions illegal. Russian presidential press secretary Dmitry Peskov stated that the Russian economy "operates under a huge number of restrictions," and therefore has already developed a "certain immunity" to them.
