Germany ready to support embargo on Russian oil

Published

Germany may soon move away from Russian energy, backing the European Union if it is to impose an embargo on Russian oil

The ban could be imposed within days.

Germany is Russia’s biggest energy customer, with energy exports being the country’s biggest source of income.

With European countries dependent on Moscow for energy, hundreds of millions of euros are being sent to Russia every day.

Germany’s Chancellor Olaf Scholz has been wary of condemning Russia but is being pressured by other politicians to show more support for Ukraine.

Economy Minister of the Greens says “Germany is not against an oil ban on Russia. Of course it is a heavy load to bear but we would be ready to do that”.

Meanwhile, Scholz confirmed that the sanctions imposed on Russia will remain until Moscow reaches a peace agreement with Ukraine.

The Chancellor says Putin’s moves were miscalculated and “He didn’t think his entire Ukraine operation through”.

He also emphasised that Germany will not accept Russia’s annexation of Crimea, labelling it as a “breach of international law”.

In an interview on ZDF public television Scholz added that he will not be visiting Kyiv.
