The European Commission is preparing to implement a ban on the transportation of Russian oil by sea, even in the absence of unanimous support from G7 countries. This move signifies the EU's intent to independently restrict Russian oil exports amid ongoing geopolitical tensions. The decision could impact global oil supply chains and further strain relations between the EU and Russia. The ban aims to reduce European reliance on Russian energy and aligns with broader sanctions efforts against Russia.
