New sanctions will limit the flow of petrodollars and gas euros to Moscow.
Limiting the price of Russian oil< /strong> will become an important element of the protection of civilized countries and energy markets from Russian hybrid aggression. President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized this in an evening video message on Friday, September 2.
The President thanked the President of the European Commission for the position to limit the price of Russian gas.
“We are fighting for the support and understanding of Ukraine in all European countries, in all audiences of European societies. We remind you every time that the protection of Ukraine is the protection of all of Europe, the entire democratic world.
It is from this point of view that it is worth considering the decision agreed today by the “Big Seven” countries to limit the price of Russian oil. When this mechanism is implemented, it will become an important element of protecting civilized countries and energy markets from Russian hybrid aggression. Indeed, the price of Russian gas must also be limited. I am grateful to Mrs. Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, who spoke about this today.
The time for such energy sanctions against Russia has long come. Sanctions that will not only limit the flow of petrodollars and gas euros to Moscow, but also restore justice for all Europeans whom Russia is trying to blackmail with an artificially inflated price crisis on the energy market,” the president says.
