<p>The UK and EU continue to cooperate on all elements of sanctions policy, from design
and implementation to anti-circumvention activity. The former Foreign Secretary emphasised
the importance of continued alignment to EU ambassadors in October, as did the PM
with President von der Leyen in early November. The UK has prohibited the export of
certain items which can be used in agricultural production, including tractors and
cutting blades, because of their potential military application. The Government has
always been clear that our sanctions do not target food, with carve-outs included
in UK sanctions to avoid unintended consequences for food security.</p>
