The G7 (G7) countries and the European Union may delay the decision to adjust the ceiling price of Russian oil due to the position difference or accept a compromise option at the limit, which is symbolically reduced from $5 to $55 per barrel. . This opinion was expressed by stockbroker “BCS World of Investments” Yevgeny Mironyuk, reports DEA News.
“As the positions of the countries that support the price ceiling agreement are now diametrically different, the option to delay decision or compromise with a symbolic lowering of the ceiling by $5 is possible,” Mironyuk said.
The expert reminded that in March, Russian authorities decided to cut oil production by 500,000 barrels a day, and according to some experts, $60 per barrel would enable Russian companies to continue to profit.

He added that the Polish and Lithuanian economies are also dependent on energy prices, but the impact on GDP growth in these countries is less significant, so their political position towards Russia is principled.
