In the UK, they may refuse to extend the investor's visa and residence visa in the country to more than 700 wealthy Russians. This is reported by The Guardian. According to the information, thus the government tries to limit the influence of the Russian Federation, which accuses of poisoning Sergei and Julia Scriples in Salisbury. In addition, the British authorities will review thousands of investment visas issued to foreigners since 2008. According to the international human rights organization Transparency International, since 2008, for seven years, hundreds of Russian citizens have received visa investors without proper verification of capital. It is reported that the visa will be refused to persons for whom there will be evidence of serious violations.

In a report titled "Moscow Gold:

Russian Corruption in the UK," the committee notes that "using London as a base for corrupt assets of individuals associated with the Kremlin clearly refers to a large-scale Russian strategy and has implications for national security". In this regard, the report says, the fight against the deployment of assets of persons associated with government officials in the Russian Federation and the tightening of sanctions should become a priority for the British authorities. At the same time, investments from Russia are called "dirty money".
