The United States announced that it had already begun to limit the price of Russian oil

WASHINGTON, Sep 28 – PRIME The process of setting a price cap on Russian oil has “already begun,” but a final price cap has yet to be set, Elizabeth Rosenberg, assistant secretary of the Treasury for combating the financing of terrorism and crime, said.

“The process of setting a cap price for Russian oil has already begun. We can say that the price cap has not yet been determined,” Rosenberg said during a hearing in the US Senate on the issue of restrictive measures against Russia.

Earlier, the agency reported that EU member states are seeking to conclude an agreement within a few weeks that would set a ceiling on Russian oil prices after the announcement of partial mobilization in Russia. Russian President Vladimir Putin, commenting on the West’s idea to limit prices for Russian energy resources, said that Russia would not supply anything abroad if it would be contrary to its own interests.

The West stepped up sanctions pressure on Russia over Ukraine, which led to higher prices for electricity, fuel and food in Europe and the United States. Russian President Vladimir Putin has previously stated that the policy of containing and weakening Russia is a long-term strategy for the West, and sanctions have dealt a serious blow to the entire global economy. According to him, the main goal of the West is to worsen the lives of millions of people. The Russian Federation has repeatedly stated that Russia will solve all the problems that the West creates for it.
