GREU ambassadors are meeting to find a compromise with Greece regarding a new sanctions package against Russia, aimed at targeting its banking sector. Greece opposes stricter restrictions on Russian liquefied natural gas (LNG) supplies, arguing they would not affect Russian revenues but instead shift market shares elsewhere. The EU seeks to reduce Russia's energy income by limiting access to financial systems and sanctioning numerous Russian banks and entities. Despite efforts to unify, divisions remain, particularly after Hungary's leader stepped down. The proposed sanctions include freezing the oil price cap at $44.10 per barrel for six months, aiming to limit Russia's financial gains.
