Recently, the UK government has stated that Russia continues to acquire sensitive and Western-made goods from third-party entities, often without the knowledge of their respective governments.

According to the statement, several countries have taken measures to reduce the flow of Common High Priority List (CHPL) goods to Russia. However, the UK advises businesses to continuously assess export control measures in the countries they operate in and conduct enhanced due diligence when exporting at-risk products to certain jurisdictions to prevent their re-export to Russia.

The statement emphasizes that the UK government supports trade with the listed countries as long as the final destination is not Russia or any other unauthorized location. The list of jurisdictions identified based on risk factors and trade flow data includes:

• Armenia
• China (including Hong Kong and Macau)
• India
• Israel
• Kazakhstan
• Kyrgyzstan
• Malaysia
• Mongolia
• Serbia
• Thailand
• Turkey
• UAE
• Uzbekistan
• Vietnam
   

The UK government noted that this list is not exhaustive and will be updated periodically.
