Energy supplier EDF and waste firm Veolia have been accused of indirectly funding the war.
Despite the death of 5,000 civilians, EDF Group’s contracts include a deal to source uranium from state-run nuclear power giant Rosatom.
And Veolia – like EDF, Frenchowned – has a number of lucrative heating and waste supply contracts.
Both firms insist they comply with international sanctions and that their activities are to provide essential public services. But critics believe they should cut all ties immediately.
Lib Dem energy spokesperson Wera Hobhouse said: “EDF should do the right thing by ending their business with brutal dictator Putin.”
Greenpeace France has urged EDF Group chief Jean-Bernard Levy to pull out of Russia “given the risks of being held liable for complicity in war crimes and crimes against humanity”.
