The fact that the West may impose sanctions against the energy sector of Russia was reported on February 25 in the European Union. However, then France, Italy and Germany opposed the pressure on the Russian energy sector, in their opinion, such sanctions could backfire and cause a sharp rise in energy prices in Europe.
The State Department also said that the United States would not impose sanctions on Russia's oil and gas industry due to fears of rising prices. “If we target the oil and gas sector for Putin, and in this case the Russian energy establishment, then prices will jump. Perhaps he (Putin.) would sell only half of his production, but at double the price, ”Amos Hochstein, an adviser to the State Department on energy security, was quoted by BLOOMBERG on February 25.
