B. Johnson: British companies working with Russia should ‘think seriously’

British banks or companies working with either side of the government of Russian President Vladimir Putin should seriously consider whether their actions strengthen his “regime”, a spokesman for Prime Minister Boris Johnson said today.

Energy company BP and the World Bank HSBC were among the Western companies seeking a way out of Russia following Putin’s invasion of Ukraine.

“I think the prime minister’s view is that the Putin regime and Putin himself should be treated as a rogue state and that companies should think very carefully if they are still doing something that strengthens the Putin regime,” he said. representative to journalists.

“We are not seeking anything about regime change, what we are obviously talking about is how to stop Russia from seeking to subjugate a democratic country.”
