He also added that Ukraine needs to go through and survive this period, as the country experienced a “much more difficult stage of market recovery” in the spring.
Earlier it was reported that Australia and the G7 countries reached an agreement on the ceiling price of Russian oil at $60 per barrel.
The US Treasury noted that Russia will be able to sell oil within the established limit through G7 service providers or conductors outside the coalition, reducing sales.

Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak stressed that the introduction of a ceiling on oil prices could lead to a shortage of energy resources.
