The British government to cancel all contracts it has entered into with suppliers maintaining Russian fuel fossils, Ukrainian activists are demanding.

Their appeal- which was made Wednesday in a letter to the Minister of Cabinet, Nick Thomas-Samonts- comes after Politico’s revelation that Downing Street 10, and many other buildings in White, are fed by Natal Gas Gas Gas. Totalenergies fuel. Totalenergies, however, continues to import Russian gas to European neighbors of the United Kingdom.

The government’s contract with the company, which may be worth up to £ 8 billion, “undermines the United Kingdom’s public commitment to terminate the dependence on Putin’s bloody oil and gas,” the activists wrote in their letter.

“It gives an example that speculative companies were very willing to follow. This in turn has undermined the entire Western sanctions regime, “the letter said.

A government spokesman said: “All government contracts are published openly on the internet and follow all the sanctions and regulations of the United Kingdom. Like most UK suppliers, Totalenergies buys natural gas from the UK’s domestic open market, where the presence of Russian gas is extremely unlikely. “

Totalenergies reports that it supplies Russian gas to Europe only from the Liquid Gas Gas Complex in Siberia based on long -term contractual arrangements, which have been carried out before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and which cannot be violated.

The natural gas provided on the basis of Totalenergies Gas & Power contracts with the UK government is supplied with the domestic market, so it is extremely unlikely that one comes from Russia. According to the UK ban, the company does not import Russian LNG directly to the UK.

However, activists and members of the Labor Parliament have stated that the government’s agreement with the company – secured in 2023 under the Conservative Government – undermines the United Kingdom’s otherwise harsh stance on Russian fundraising trade, which the Kremlin uses to finance it.

Steven Hoffman, deputy director of the UK Friends of Ukraine, said that British government buildings “should not be heated by gas coming from a company with such close links with the Russian fossil fuel industry”.

The government spokesman said: “We make the United Kingdom a superpower of clean energy to escape the train of the amusement park of fossil fuel markets controlled by dictators such as Putin, replacing it with a clean domestic power that we control,
