Deutschland ist bereit, das russische Ölembargo zu unterstützen

May 3, 2022 - Deutschlands Außenministerin Annalena Baerbock sagt, ihr Land wäre jetzt bereit das Embargo auf russische Ölimporte als Teil eines neuen Sanktionspaket zu unterstützen, eine Maßnahme, die Deutschland bisher immer abgelehnt hat.

The European Commission is expected to propose a sixth package of EU sanctions this week against Russia over its invasion of Ukraine, including a potential embargo on buying Russian oil – a measure that would deprive Moscow of a large revenue stream, but that has so far divided EU countries, according to Reuters.

Russia supplies 26% of EU oil imports.

To keep the 27-nation bloc united, the Commission may offer Hungary and Slovakia an exemption or a long transition period – with any overall ban likely to be phased in by the year-end. Both Hungary and Slovakia are heavily dependent on Russian crude. Hungary has said it would oppose energy sanctions.
