According to CCTV, US Secretary of State Blinken said on the 6th that the United States is working with its European allies to jointly study the possibility of banning the import of Russian oil as a new sanction measure against Russia
.
Since the beginning of Russia's military operations against Ukraine, the United States and the West have continuously increased their sanctions against Russia, but the sanctions have not yet involved Russian oil and gas exports
.
In this regard, the White House has repeatedly said that the US government is considering cutting oil
imports from Russia.
Members of both parties to the U.
S.
Congress are also rapidly pushing for a bill
that completely bans the import of Russian energy.
Russia is one of the world's major oil exporters, and the United States imported an average of more than 20.
4 million barrels of crude oil and refined petroleum products from Russia in 2021, accounting for 8%
of US liquid fuel imports, according to the US Energy Information Administration.
If sanctions are imposed on Russia's oil and gas exports, it will not only seriously affect the global crude oil market, but also have a huge impact on the domestic energy market of
the United States.
Some Western leaders worry that the move could trigger a global energy crisis and lead to a further escalation
of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict.
