Johnson issued a statement on Monday saying: "Dirty money has no place in the UK. We are accelerating and increasing their strength to tear those who secretly support (Russian President) Putin's destructive action masks."
Johnson said: "Those who support Putin have been told that your unjust money has nowhere to hide."
