Peskov said that the ceiling of oil prices will lead to destabilization of the market

MOSCOW, Sep 2 — PRIME. The anti-Russian measures of the West led to a crisis in the global energy market, Russia has alternative scenarios for this case, said the press secretary of the Russian leader Dmitry Peskov.

According to him, Moscow has alternative scenarios for the development of the situation, including the search for new export routes. The spokesman noted that oil will be supplied to countries “that operate on market conditions.”

“Here I can succinctly, in fact, simply remind you of yesterday’s statements by Deputy Prime Minister (Alexander) Novak. You know that Novak is the one who maintains contacts with us both through OPEC, through OPEC +, contacts related to oil issues. And Novak yesterday unequivocally and clearly stated that those countries that join a potential such price ceiling, they will not be among the recipients of Russian oil. We simply will not interact with them on oil on such deliberate principles,” the Kremlin spokesman said.

Peskov stressed that the ceiling on oil prices would lead to a significant destabilization of the market.
