Rejected petition Deny Russian-owned vessels (ships/tankers) access to all UK ports.

We have limited sanctions in place and stopped Russian owned aircraft from landing in the UK, yet Russian ships are still docking at UK ports - such as Sovcomflot at Flotta oil terminal this very week.
Sanctions must be applied and all Russian registered ships should be denied entry to UK ports.

More details

The UK stance in support of Ukraine against Russian aggression must be decisive and complete.
