The United States ban Russian oil imports, Europe plans similar restrictions [CZ]

22. 4. 2022
The invasion of Russian troops into Ukraine was a sharp wake-up call for the West, after which some countries decided to ban or restrict imports of Russian raw materials.

However, only countries that are not fully dependent on Russian fossil fuels (the United States) could afford an embargo on them. Europe is currently planning similar measures. Regarding the EU countries, the process of moving away from Russian resources take almost a decade.
