"Despite the artificial difficulties caused by sanctions, in any case, everything is regulated by the market. Of course Russia will not sell anything at a loss," Peskov said.
As previously reported, Biden said that the West is exploring the feasibility of buying Russian oil at below-market prices, rather than giving up imports.
On May 30, EU leaders agreed to ban more than two-thirds of Russian oil imports and to cut the actual total oil imports from Russia by about 90% by the end of 2022.
Peskov said that EU sanctions on Russian crude oil and petroleum products will have adverse effects on both sides and even the global energy market.
