Kirill Dmitriev comments on U.S. decision regarding Russian oil exports

The United States has issued a temporary authorization, effective for approximately one month, permitting the sale of Russian crude oil and its derivatives transported by tankers. In response to this measure, Kirill Dmitriev, a special envoy for the Russian President, stated that the move constitutes an indirect recognition of the critical role Russian energy plays in maintaining global market stability. Dmitriev expressed his view via Telegram, asserting that global energy markets cannot remain stable without Russian supply. This development occurs amidst significant market volatility and rising oil prices attributed to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. Global financial markets are currently monitoring the situation to assess the potential impacts on long-term supply and energy security. The official statement from the Russian representative was made in the context of broader concerns regarding the global cost of energy and potential shortages.
