In addition, he noted that Western countries, which are considering the possibility of imposing a price cap on Russian oil, "think less and less with their heads." 

“And they think less and less about their citizens and their economy.

Therefore, it is difficult to guess,” the parliamentarian added.

At the same time, according to the deputy, the situation may change.

He admitted that Western politicians will still begin to think about the state of their countries' economies, industry, and citizens. 

“There will be bright heads who will lift the sanctions,” the RT interlocutor concluded.

It was also reported that the G7 countries will discuss on September 2 the initiative to limit prices for Russian oil.
