The US will today ban imports of oil, natural gas and coal from Russia

The ban on energy imports from Russia would be only by Washington, since the European allies, much more dependent on Russian energy, have shown their reluctance in this regard.

The American President, Joe Bidenwill announce this Tuesday the ban on imports of oil, natural gas and coal from Russia, in a new measure of pressure on Moscow for the invasion of Ukraine, according to several US media.

The ban on energy imports from Russia, one of the largest global producers, would be only by Washington, since the European allies, much more dependent on Russian energy, have shown their reluctance in this regard.

United States oil imports from Russia account for about 8% of the total, while in the European case it is 27%, according to the respective official data.
