“On January 26, 2023, the European Commission proposed additional sanctions in response to the ongoing escalation ... the commission proposed a structure for marginal prices for Russian oil products,” RIA Novosti quotes the words of an EC representative.

The agency also proposed a number of additional trade sanctions against Belarus.

Earlier, US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said that the United States began discussing with the EU and G7 countries the issue of imposing a ceiling on prices for Russian oil products.

Press Secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov said that it is too early to talk about any loss of Russia's income from the sale of energy resources.

Peskov also stressed that Russia has not yet faced a ceiling in energy prices.
