Current Events | "G7 Imposes Price Cap: US Treasury Reports 40% Drop in Russia Oil Revenue" | #shorts #news

The United States Treasury recently reported that the income that Russia earned from selling crude oil to other countries had dropped by a significant 40% in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period as the year prior, due to the price cap imposed by the G7. This decrease in revenue is particularly consequential for Russia, as before the conflict between Ukraine and Russia, oil revenues had constituted roughly 30-35% of their total budget. However, in 2023 this number has decreased to a mere 23%, demonstrating the great impact this price cap has had on their economy. From an American perspective, this decrease in Russia's revenue from oil sales serves as a reminder of the importance of economic sanctions and other price caps as a tool for exerting political influence on other countries. It also speaks to the power of collective action, as the G7 was only able to impose this price cap through a cooperative effort.
