The head of the Estonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Urmas Reinsalu, said EU countries should decide to lower the ceiling price of Russian oil to $30 per barrel by the end of March. It has been reported Bloomberg.
“We must put a ceiling on the price of Russian oil so as not to allow the Russian state to reap additional benefits,” said the Estonian minister.
He stressed that such a measure would be a step in the “right direction”.
Reinsalu stressed that it is also necessary to “maintain friendly pressure” on Russia’s neighboring countries. According to the head of the Estonian department, this will ensure that they do not participate in the violations of the EU’s anti-Russian sanctions regime.
