“As the G7 is still working out the details of the oil price cap, it will likely not feature in the latest package of EU sanctions against Russia,” the report said.
At the same time, it is emphasized that, most likely, sanctions will be imposed on chemicals, machines, steel products (for 12 billion euros), as well as “a dozen people” involved in the so-called “referendums”.
Addition
According to The Financial Times, the EU’s eighth package of sanctions against the Russian Federation, which is being prepared in response to “partial mobilization” and pseudo-referendums, will target the Russian IT sector, cyber security and information technology, as well as luxury goods.
At the same time, Bloomberg reported that the member states of the European Union have been trying to reach a political agreement for several weeks that would introduce price restrictions for Russian oil. Discussions intensified after Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a “partial mobilization.”
