It became known about the signing of the document by the President of Russia, which becomes a response to the introduction by a number of countries of a ceiling on prices for Russian oil. Recall, that measures to artificially limit the price of oil, mined in Russia and sold by Russia, introduced the countries of the so-called "Big Seven", a number of EU countries, Australia and some other states. The price ceiling for Russian grade oil has been announced as a bar in 60 dollars. At the moment, the price of Brent crude oil is approximately 85,5 US $.
President Putin signed a decree, which refers to the ban on the supply of Russian oil to any country in the world, which joined the sanctions, associated with the "price ceiling". Also, the decree of the head of state prescribed to prohibit the fulfillment of obligations under any contracts for the sale of oil with countries, which in their legislation prescribed the effect of such a ceiling.
At the same time, there is such a nuance in the decree of Vladimir Putin, as an opportunity to supply Russian oil to the countries mentioned above with special permission personally from the President of the Russian Federation.
At the moment, the price of oil of the Russian grade Urals is about 67 dollars. Any of the countries, supported the introduction of price restrictions for Russian oil, can't receive it, if the President does not authorize the above special permission.
experts believe, that now some countries, supported the introduction of a price ceiling for Russian oil, will try to "probe" the option with such a special presidential permission. After all, in the same West they understand well, what if Russian oil at least partially leaves the world market, then the prices for "black gold" will go up, and no artificial ceilings to limit them.
