Russia Deputy PM Novak: EU price cap exemptions show our oil is still in demand
Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said on Wednesday that European Union moves to add what he called “exemptions” to its price cap on oil products showed that Russian oil was still in demand.
“Yesterday we saw another change to the European Union’s regulations, the exemptions,” he said in comments shared by the state-run TASS news agency.

The European Union said last week it agreed to set price caps on Russian refined oil products to limit Moscow’s funds for its invasion of Ukraine.
