Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said the interior ministries are ready to impose marginal prices for Russian oil by Western countries. It has been reported DEA News.
“Preparation for this step in various fields <…> It was carried out by our relevant departments and structures.”
Ryabkov promised to ensure the observance of Russia’s interests in this area.
The decision to impose a ceiling price on Russian oil, adopted by the European Union countries, G7 countries and Australia, entered into force on 5 December. The ceiling price has been set at $60 per barrel and will be reviewed regularly after January 15. The restrictions will affect a wide range of services related to the transportation of oil by sea. The Kremlin refused to accept the decision of the Western countries. On December 5, the EU embargo on the offshore supply of Russian oil also begins to work.
