RE:RE:Interesting PerspectiveCountries may have not included Russian energy supplies in the sanctions because the world needs to see those supplies exported, but reality is telling a different story.
The energy supply is being disrupted not because of trade policies, but because Russian oil importers can't get financing. The importers need letters of credit signed by a financial instituition to guarantee payment. No bank in its right mind would sign a letter for credit for something as controversial and risky as Russian buying oil & gas right now.
I've heard estimates of credit & transportation risk premiums have more than tripled and show no signs of the situation "derisking". Sanctions or no sanctions, money talks and the end result is the same.
