The publication writes that the Ambassadors of the European Union supported the price limit for Russian oil at the level of $ 60 per barrel after intense negotiations. It is noted that it is more than $ 50, which already sells the flagship Russian oil variety of Urals. According to analyst Joel Hancock, the market has thought that exports of Russian crude oil would remain more stable than expected earlier. It will not affect the price ceiling as expected.
According to journalists, Moscow's reaction remains the key. Earlier, she threatened to stop production, but recently the Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation Sergey Lavrov stated that the restriction did not matter. "We don't care what will be the price ceiling. We will negotiate with our partners directly," Lavrov said. The head of the US Ministry of Finance Janet Yellen said that price limitation will stimulate the flow of reduced Russian oil prices into world markets.
It aims to help protect consumers and business from global supply. Yellen added that countries will be able to trade for higher discounts on Russian oil and benefit from greater stability in the world energy markets. "We believe that a figure of $ 60 per barrel is appropriate" to balance the restriction of Moscow's ability to make a profit, "said US National Security Council representative John Kirby. He added that the limit could be adjusted in the future.
The publication writes that Ukraine has declared, that Ukraine has declared, that the price ceiling should be set at $ 30 per barrel. It was also reported that Poland approved a new price for Russian oil installed by the EU. Earlier the country blocked the decision, demanding a "ceiling" price at $ 30 per barrel, but eventually agreed to the price $ 60. Earlier, Focus wrote that experts told how the Russian Federation with Ukraine influenced life in the world.
