Kremlin says new U.S. sanctions on Russian energy will destabilise global markets
Jan 13, 2025 1:48 AM

MOSCOW, Jan 13 (Reuters) - The Kremlin said on Monday

that the latest round of U.S. sanctions on the Russian energy

sector risked destabilising global oil and energy markets, and

Moscow would do everything possible to minimise their impact.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said it was clear that

Washington was trying to undermine Russian companies. He said

Moscow would monitor the situation and help companies adapt.

The U.S. Treasury imposed wider sanctions on Russian oil on

Friday, targeting producers Gazprom Neft and

Surgutneftegaz, as well as 183 vessels that have shipped Russian

oil.

The move was meant to cut Russia's revenues for financing

the war with Ukraine. A U.S. official said the sanctions could

cost Russia billions of dollars per month if sufficiently

enforced.
