HOW?
• Many of the Western countries control the ships and more importantly the insurance the shippers use.
◦ For example, to go through #SuezCanal you need a certain threshold of insurance
◦ Insurance than is purchased in UK and also Germany
◦ Russian, Chinese and Indian insurance not accepted here
• The insurers will refuse to insure the cargo if it's not being sold at the set price - which could be around 50/60 per barrel
• Therefore restricting Russian oil sales if they don’t' cooperate.
However doing this will be quite challenging and I think has potential to backfire on the #West, I'll explain why in the next video.
