Earlier in March, media reported that Poland and Lithuania suggested lowering the price cap to $51.45 from $60 per barrel. The report said that the EU's ambassadors were set to discuss sanctions against Russia and the price ceiling on Wednesday. On March 7, Assistant Secretary of the US Treasury for Terrorist Financing and Financial Crimes Elizabeth Rosenberg confirmed to Sputnik that the Group of Seven would reevaluate the price cap on Russian oil in March to determine if any recalibration is needed, but did not disclose if they believe it is working to sway Russia's policy. In December 2022, the European Union stopped importing Russian oil transported by sea. The G7 countries, Australia and the EU imposed a price cap of $60 a barrel for Russian crude oil transported by sea, blocking transport of oil bought at higher prices. In retaliation, Russia prohibited selling its oil abroad if supply contracts provide for a price cap mechanism.
