United States seeking to ratchet up the pressure on Moscow over its invasion of Ukraine said Washington and its European allies were considering banning Russian oil imports. ExxonMobil, Shell and BP sell out its stakes in Russian oil and gas operations as a result of Moscow's invasion of Ukraine. Russia controls a sixth of the world's gas and a tenth of its oil. Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak warns that a Western ban on Russian oil imports could result in oil prices more than doubling to about $300 per barrel. (Rosneft handout via EYEPRESS)

Russian President Vladimir Putin meets visiting German Chancellor Olaf Scholz in Kremlin, Moscow, Russia, on Tuesday Feb 15, 2022 with the ongoing crisis at the Russian-Ukrainian border dominating the agenda. Olaf Scholz made his inaugural visit as German chancellor to Moscow on Tuesday after travelling to Ukraine to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy. Germany has found itself in a difficult situation regarding the threat of a Russian invasion of Ukraine. It is both a member of NATO and an important trade partner for Russia. Berlin has repeatedly vowed its support for Ukrainian sovereignty, but has been less keen on threats of abandoning the controversial Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline that would bring Russian fuel directly into Germany.
