These Regulations are intended to ensure that the UK can operate an effective sanctions regime in relation to Belarus after the UK leaves the EU. When these Regulations come into force they will replace, with substantially the same effect, the EU sanctions regime relating to Belarus that is currently in force under EU legislation and related UK regulations. This instrument also applies to conduct by UK persons outside the UK. In addition, the maritime enforcement powers contained in Part 9 of this instrument apply in relation to British ships in international or foreign waters, ships without nationality in international waters and foreign ships in international waters.
