Reuters previously reported that the Seven Kingdoms Group tried to restrict Russia's ability to provide funds for the Ukraine War by reducing Russia's oil revenue, but Russia statedPrice measures.
Before the G7 member states, the European Union and Australia set the upper limit of Russia's oil prices, the European Union had embarked on Russian crude oil imported at sea, and the United States, Canada, Japan, and the United Kingdom also promised to take similar actions.
They allow Russia to transport oil to third -party countries through the G7 and EU's oil tankers, insurance companies and credit institutions, provided that the price of Russian oil is less than $ 60 or less than $ 60 per barrel.
Since the world's main shipping and insurance companies are based on G7 countries, the G7 and other countries have set the upper limit of oil prices in Russia, or it makes it difficult for Moscow to sell oil at higher prices.
