ЕС и Великобритания вводят самые жесткие санкции против российской нефти, чтобы парализовать военную машину Путина

The European Union and the UK have agreed on their most stringent sanctions package yet against Russia, targeting the country’s vital oil and energy sectors in response to the ongoing war in Ukraine.

The new measures include a substantial lowering of the price cap on Russian crude oil, expanded bans on Russian petroleum products, and restrictions on Russian banks and shipping. These sanctions aim to slash Russia’s energy revenues, which fund a significant portion of its war effort, and to increase diplomatic and economic pressure on Moscow. However, the effectiveness of these sanctions is debated, as countries like India and China continue to import Russian oil, and Russia claims to have adapted to Western restrictions.

The move has also sparked concerns among Indian refiners and European businesses about potential disruptions and economic fallout.
