European Commission preparing floating price cap on Russia, starting at $45 ...Middle East

News by : (forex live) -

The new mechanism is being drafted after earlier proposals to lower the G7-imposed $60 per barrel cap to $45 met resistance from some member states and failed to gain U.S. support.The floating cap would be reviewed more automatically and could start slightly above $45, though details are still under discussion. The move comes amid concerns that the fixed cap has become ineffective due to falling oil prices.Shipping-dependent countries like Greece, Cyprus, and Malta remain cautious, worried the measure could harm their maritime industries if businesses shift outside the EU.
