EU push to target Russian oil exports will have consequences – Kremlin

The Kremlin is pushing back against the EU’s plan to tighten restrictions on Russian oil exports by lowering the price cap to $45 per barrel. Dmitry Peskov, a top spokesperson for Moscow, warned that Russia will take steps to protect its economic interests if the move goes ahead. This sets the stage for another potential escalation in the economic tug-of-war between Russia and the West.
