G7 member countries demanded from the third countries, which import Russian oil, to apply in their calculations the marginal prices, established by the oil embargo of December 5.
According to the text of a joint statement on the website of the German G7 chairman, the EU intends to adhere to a tough stance on rejecting energy resources from Russia until the end.
In order to ensure that low-income countries have access to Russian oil, the West is limiting cap prices for it.
Berlin also called on third countries wishing to buy crude oil from Russia to apply the prices, which will come into force on February 5, 2023.
Previously, it became known that Vladimir Putin instructed the government to increase salaries for state employees in 2023.
