Russia will not export oil subject to Western-imposed price cap: Novak
Russia will not export oil that is subject a Western-imposed price cap even if Moscow has to accept a drop in oil production, President Vladimir Putin’s point man on energy said on Sunday.
“We are working on mechanisms to prohibit the use of a price cap instrument, regardless of what level is set, because such interference could further destabilize the market,” Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said.
