Earlier, according to Reuters, the G7 countries and Australia decided to set a fixed price for oil supplied from Russia. Implementation of this decision was planned in coming weeks.
The first results of the agreement can be found right now 🙃 Poland and the Baltic countries did not agree the cost of Russian oil at $65 per barrel, Bloomberg reports, citing sources.
«Poland on Wednesday rejected the EU’s executive arm’s proposed price of $65 per barrel as being too generous to Moscow,» the source said.
It is noted that a number of countries with a massive oil shipping industry, including Greece, do not want to fall below $ 70. So no consensus could be reached. In the near future, it is planned to hold the next meeting to determine the price ceiling. But it is already clear that the Western countries doesn’t show their notorious unity, there is a huge split 😅
