MOSCOW, November 8. /TASS/. United Kingdom’s sanctions against the Russian National Reinsurance Company (RNRC) will not affect operations of the national civil aviation, Russian Deputy Minister of Transport Igor Chalik told reporters.

"Not affecting," the official said, answering the question about the impact of sanctions.

The United Kingdom introduced sanctions against RNRC earlier today. The company started undertaking risks under carrier reinsurance agreements since March of this year, when European players dropped them due to sanctions.
